Each day begins with a meeting that sets the tone for the day. Everyone reviews the schedule, discusses their goals, and ponders the question of the day.
Division wide community service projects are implemented throughout the school year, mostly organized by our Student Government Leaders and might include food collection, book drives, diaper drives, and campus cleaning needs. Students are presented with many volunteer opportunities within the school year.

Town Hall; Chapel
Each Monday, the entire Lower School meets outside on the playground field to set a positive tone for the week by presenting awards, celebrating successes, and talking about the word of the month weekly challenge. In closing, pledges, prayers, and the honor code are recited by all.
On Wednesday this time is used for Chapel service. The entire Lower School gathers in the North Naples Church (NNC) Sanctuary to listen, sing, think spiritually and pray.

Project-based learning also allows students to hone in on their strengths, use them to develop products as a group where all students’ strengths shine.
In fifth grade, a final capstone passion project culminates the elementary years into one major project where students combine their passions with a service project that benefits the community.
