MHS Announces Addition of Lower School

Kathryn — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 19:02:25 +0000

Mooreland Hill School is happy to announce that it is adding a Kindergarten to Grade 3 Lower School to complement its existing Grade 4 to Grade 9 program. The expansion into the lower grades will enable the school to provide an exceptional, all-inclusive elementary and middle school program. The Board of Trustees and Founders approved the expansion at a special meeting held on Tuesday, November 29. Planning for the expansion kicked into high gear immediately thereafter.

The Lower School program will be offered in a mixed-age group configuration consistent with the existing Grades 4/5 Multi-Age Group (MAG) grouping. The new Lower School will be housed in Founders Hall in four classrooms: K/1, 2/3, and 4/5 MAG classrooms. In January, 2012, a lower school model classroom will be designed for tours.

The school has hired two consultants who will be working with the faculty and administration to design an academic program. The consultants will also be instrumental in the hiring process. Peggy Chappell has years of experience as a lower school teacher, Lower School Division Director, Director of Admissions, and School Social Worker. Peggy is currently on the Mooreland Hill School Board of Trustees. Peggy Phillips is a thirty-year veteran Kindergarten teacher who is now consulting. She is a tremendous resource for Kindergarten organization and planning.

In the coming weeks and months, our consultants and administrators look forward to meeting with current Mooreland Hill School and prospective Lower School parents at various events. Please keep checking back for updates about this exciting new venture.
