The Atelieristas connect the arts to our inquiry arcs through performance, music, and visual methods. With what the Atelieristas bring to the classroom, students engage with their own learning in a variety of meaningful and creative ways.

To help serve our families that need additional hours of care for their students, for an add-on fee we offer extended day programs. Before care begins at 7:00am and Afternoon Arc ends at 6:00pm. Each day has a different themed activity led by different teachers. Students pack their own snacks for these programs.

The Compositive model is the result of years of research done by a team of expert educators to determine the best ways that children learn. A wonderful combination of multiple educational models, we focus on whole child education through inquiry and strengths-based approaches.
The emergent curriculum at Compositive Primary grows with the needs of every child. We strive to prepare students to be sophisticated thinkers who master content and have a sense of responsibility for their own learning and community.
