Curriculum Overview

At PS1, our curriculum is thoughtfully crafted by faculty who combine deep expertise with a keen understanding of each student’s unique needs. We believe that how we teach is just as important as what we teach. Elementary school is not seven separate years but one continuous, seven-year journey. Throughout this time, we honor and nurture each child’s natural development at every stage.

We want students to embrace education as an exciting lifelong adventure fueled by their own curiosity, empathy, and growing expertise, not as a checklist or a set of labels to earn. Our comprehensive K–6 curriculum blends innovative teaching methods with inspiring, multidisciplinary content that fosters a powerful cycle: self-motivation drives academic success, and academic success fuels self-motivation.

Through hands-on, collaborative lessons and projects, students experience how math, art, science, music, writing, reading, performance, and play connect to illuminate different facets of a greater whole. This integrated approach helps them see learning as meaningful and relevant.

Bringing this program to life every day requires exceptional knowledge, flexibility, and compassion from our teachers. The payoff is clear: PS1 students develop a deep understanding of themselves as learners and as people, often at an impressively early age. Because they take ownership of their learning and genuinely love the process, their confidence, ambitions, and capabilities continually expand.

PS1 has a proud tradition of preparing balanced, resilient, and successful students who go on to thrive in secondary school and beyond. Our graduates become thoughtful leaders who engage deeply with important ideas, think critically, and approach challenges with curiosity and confidence. The ability to ask insightful questions, articulate ideas clearly, and maintain a lifelong passion for learning is what sets PS1 students apart.
