versed, while developing greater competence and self-reliance in areas that might pose academic challenges. But Clark is so much more than its academic offerings: the school teaches character and core values intentionally and is committed to growing the whole child by modeling self-confidence, resilience, empathy, self-determination, self-advocacy and initiative, and empowering students though "challenges by choice." "At Clark School, we hope your child will make a lot of mistakes. I know this sounds a bit out of the ordinary, but we feel that students truly grow through error and acceptance of the fact that they will indeed make mistakes." —Jeff Clark, head of school EPSTEIN HILLEL SCHOOL offers an innovative and challenging dual-language educational experience grounded in Judaism. The teachers at EHS recognize and challenge students' strengths, while developing their natural curiosity to help them reach their full potential. Graduates of EHS are known for their academic achievements, strong Jewish identity, confidence, and sound moral compass. "EHS prepares students for life. We are grateful for the nurturing environment in which learning is paramount, risk-taking is encouraged, and the importance of community is explicitly taught." —Carrie Berger, current parent HARBORLIGHT MONTESSORI SCHOOL'S three-year cycle at each level recognizes that academic and social growth are developmental rather than simply chronological. Each child is valued for who they are, and a hands-on collaborative approach is an essential element of a Montessori education. Emblematic of this is the school's Experience Weeks program, which provides students with rich, interdisciplinary learning opportunities, on and off campus, so they dive deeply into areas of curriculum to discover both context and connections. "We believe that each student is unique, and we are proud that they leave Harborlight as confident, collaborative, compassionate citizens, ready to engage their world." —Paul Horovitz, head of school HERONFIELD ACADEMY is a stand-alone middle school by design, enabling it to place its entire focus on grades 6, 7, and 8.
