Elementary School
"The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease for ever to be able to do it."
Peter Pan, by J.M. Barrie

Nurturing Our Youngest Dragons
We believe that providing a community for children early on to discover and explore who they are is the foundation for future success. How children see themselves as problem solvers, communicators, and learners shapes their identity and values as they grow and develop.
Laughter, joy, and smiling students fill the halls of the KAS Elementary School. Students are encouraged to learn through play, work through challenges, and make new friends in the safe and welcoming environments we’ve purposefully created. Dedicated and caring teachers provide an academically rigorous and challenging program that fosters a love of learning and stretches our students to their full potential.
