Why East Woods?
East Woods is intentionally structured as a Pre-Nursery - Eighth Grade school to maintain an environment where the needs of younger students are the top priority and each child is our focus. With this model as our foundation, students thrive in a supportive setting that allows them the time and guidance to explore their goals and interests.
By the time they reach eighth grade, East Woods students are the leaders of the school and are looked to and act with a strong sense of leadership, guidance, and responsibility.
The most important thing as parents we can do for our children is to give them a foundation to succeed in the world. This foundation includes certain core academic skills, a sense of self, a sense of moral values, a sense of passion, a sense of community, and the confidence to take risks and lead. Our experience is that East Woods has provided this foundation for each of our very different children.
