[edit]Class structure
The kindergarten through fifth grade classes are all taught by one teacher except for art, music, library, and gym. In the sixth grade, one teacher teaches social studies to both classes and the other teacher teaches science to both classes. The classes are also divided by ability in math. In the seventh and eighth grades, there are home-room teachers with other subjects taught by specialist teachers (science, Spanish/French, English, math and social studies). In 1997 A.E.Ryan was Artist-in-Residence[4] and in 2003, Professor Jeremy Solomons was the Drama Artist-in-Residence.[5]
