Salt Box School Curriculum

Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and First Grade Programs are located on two floors of the Salt Box.

Small individualized groups challenge children to pursue, in depth, the Family School curriculum. Weekly field trips to local settings provide for close interaction between community and class routine. The individualized academic program challenges each child to learn thoroughly through the basic skills, and the arts and sciences at his/her own pace and level.

Physical challenges comes from daily hikes in Nickerson State Park and other coached activities such as swimming and ice skating. Classes meet five days per week from 8:30-2:30. Evaluation is ongoing and includes portfolio collection.
