Overview
Thank you for your interest in our teachers! Our classrooms are monitored and designed using the Infant Toddler Environment Rating Scales (ITERS), Early Childhood Environment Rating Scales (ECERS), and the School Age Environment Rating Scales.
Our teachers are formally trained in the most updated early childhood information.
Each staff member receives a minimum of 15 clock hours of training each year, as well as opportunities for continuing higher education.
The Lexington School provides an education of the highest quality in a structured, nurturing community. We instill integrity, a joyful pursuit of learning, and a strong work ethic.
In our supportive environment where children are known, they develop courage. Courageous children take risks, and we embrace the growth that emerges from their success and failure.
We succeed when our graduates crave achievement and live with a purpose beyond themselves.
