About the school

As a Pre-K-8 school, Spruce students can expect many opportunities to build on the successes of elementary school, with an adolescent spin. Our instructional approach emphasizes inquiry and depth. All students engage in daily humanities blocks where they read, write, inquire, debate, and research. Mathematics plays a large role in our curriculum, and happens daily. Our math instruction emphasizes both conceptual understanding and fact fluency. All students engage in science instruction across the week, utilizing our state of-the-art science lab. Our curriculum also emphasizes social and emotional development through advisory. We offer visual art and music. Students also engage in electives which range from coding to sculpture to dance. At Spruce Street, we expect students to serve as leaders across our school.
