Satori Elementary School was founded in 1980 with a mission to provide a nurturing environment where children discover fundamentals within the context of an integrated, real-world curriculum. The school serves children in kindergarten through fifth grade in small, multi-age classes. Each class has a two-grade span with a maximum of 12 students assigned to one credentialed teacher. The school has a full-time teaching staff of four and a part-time staff of six teachers.
Satori is committed to helping each child reach their full potential using innovative teaching, individual attention, and parental involvement. Satori is not associated with any religion.
All of the traditional subjects are taught using traditional textbooks regularly supplemented with manipulatives, hands-on experiences and real world exposures. The children have opportunities to experience the disciplines in an integrated fashion as they participate in thematic units within the classroom and as participants in school-wide thematic units.
Parental involvement is the cornerstone of a child's education. Parental involvement, interest and support is crucial in communication to a child the importance of education. They must see that their parents are interested to place importance to the task. Satori requires parental involvement in the school, ranging from volunteering in school activities and fundraising efforts to serving as Board officers of the school. All parents are voting members, and all have the opportunity to shape their child's education.
