Building a foundation for students to thrive and succeed
Elementary school provides a joy-filled environment that sets the foundation for the TCA experience, purposefully created to harness and nurture each child’s unique design. Our passionate teachers are dedicated to making sure that each child receives the care and attention that he or she needs to thrive.
The rich curriculum and engaging, spacious classrooms help foster a robust learning experience for every child. Year after year, that small child who enters Elementary as an eager Kindergarten student is loved, challenged and equipped to move on to Middle School, the threshold of adolescence, as a confident and prepared learner.
