The Acorn is the proverbial symbol of promise and potential. Just as it grows to become a majestic oak that then produces its own acorns, we realize that what we do every day at The Acorn School is an investment in a better future for all.
It is our conviction of this truth that guides everything we do. We view the personal development and education of the infants, toddlers, and preschoolers we serve as a profound stewardship that deserves the greatest resources, the best talent and the most nurturing attention possible. This opportunity must be made available to all children, regardless of socioeconomic status.
Just as the little acorn needs the warm sun, nutrient-rich soil, life-giving water and the protection of the larger oaks that surround it, so too, the children at The Acorn School are provided with all the resources necessary to grow and thrive. We address the whole child’s need for emotional support, intellectual development, and social interaction, knowing that to focus on only one of these areas is to provide incomplete development. To address them all is to sow the seeds of future success.
