We Are Diverse By Design
Leadership – Our goal is to shape and strengthen students through academics, curiosity, and SEL training, with leadership qualities that can steer them to their career of choice. We teach our students to lead with empathy, develop friendships, and be collaborative.
Equity – We are all human with different qualities. Our Goal is to teach students about the “real-world” outside the classroom walls. To acknowledge and accept that there is no standard of “normal” and to learn about the Natural Community.
Everyone – Every classroom has two assigned teachers, which allows all students to explore their creativity in our Arts & Music program, partake in interest-based assignments, and get the support they need in their academics.
“We want our students when graduating from TLC to have an understanding of them selves as a learner, as someone with emotions, and understand what career they want to pursue.”
We Are A Safe and Nurturing Environment
Our school welcomes students of all learning levels, cultures, and backgrounds. With our bilingual staff, we make communication and collaboration with families a breeze. Naturally, we make all students, regardless of capability, feel comfortable and welcomed at our school.

Building a Life for The Love Of Reading
Reading helps student’s creativity blossom, develops their imagination, and strengthens their writing skills. Our reading program is part of the day-to-day classroom. We use differentiated strategies to make sure every learner gets the support they need in the reading journey. Our ultimate goal is for our students to develop a passion for reading!
