School offers information session
The Peregrine School will hold a free informational meeting at 6:30 p.m. Monday, April 18, at 1247 Alice St.
Academic Director Lorie Hammond will give a presentation on Peregrine’s unique philosophy and curriculum as well as the plans for the school’s expansion taking place this fall. The Peregrine School currently offers programs in pre-school through second grade, and is expanding to include third through sixth grades in September 2011.
The Peregrine School is a nonprofit private school that strives to integrate the rigorous academics of a classical liberal arts education with child-centered, project-based learning. Arts and sciences, as well as Spanish, are taught daily through projects. Weekly enrichment classes include yoga, dance, music and drama taught by specialists.
Health and nutrition are equally important aspects of the school, which includes daily physical education activities as well as gardens and a nutritious lunch and snack program. The school is committed to small size classes and very low student-teacher ratios. Co-directors Lorie Hammond, Ph.D., and Elena Whitcombe, M.D., a mother-daughter team, founded the school in 2007.
