What Makes Altair Different?

Inquiry-based Learning

  • Our small class size (max: 16) and low student-teacher ratio allows the time and attention for true inquiry and exploration.

Accelerated, “Teach to the Top” Approach

We allow children to work through material at their own pace. We employ best practices in gifted education, such as telescoping, curriculum compacting, problem-based learning and specially designed challenge work.

Community

Our supportive community creates a safe, loving environment where each child can be their best selves. Teachers and parents work in close partnership to know and encourage each child.

Motivated Peer Group

Altair brings together inquisitive kids who are enthusiastic about learning.

Flexible schedule

  • Class schedule: We offer a 4  and 5 day/week options. 
  • Drop-off times: Students can be dropped off as early as 8:30 AM. Class begins at 9:00 AM.
