Alcuin School is creating an educational evolution, which encompasses a strong Montessori and International Baccalaureate education, within a dynamic environment for the opportunity for students to become “innovative thinkers and passionate learners.” We are located on a sprawling 12-acre campus and winding creek/organic garden. In order to accomplish our philosophy, we work toward the following goals: To provide a solid educational foundation for our students, beginning with early childhood and continuing through the middle school years. Fewer than 10 schools in the world provide the combination of IB and Montessori education found at Alcuin. Parents select Alcuin for a progressive education which focuses on the 21st Century skills of communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creativity.
