TODDLER-KINDERGARTEN
Early Learning Center
From 12 months old to grade 5, Avenues’ Early Learning Center immerses students in English and Spanish or Mandarin, harnessing their natural ability to learn languages. In a warm, bilingual environment, students experience a unique learning journey that blends joyful exploration with deep, rigorous learning.
By kindergarten, they’re building strong foundations in literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills—growing into confident, curious learners ready for the challenges and opportunities of the Lower Division.
In grades 1—5, students engage in a rich, inquiry-based curriculum that builds a strong academic foundation while fostering student agency and diverse perspectives. Our 50/50 immersion model means students alternate days of instruction in English and their target language—Spanish or Mandarin—with learning continuing seamlessly across both.
They also engage in a wide range of specialty classes. In English, students take science, dance, and Wellness and Movement (WAM); in their target language, they explore art, music, and library. It all comes together in a joyful, intentional learning environment where students feel deeply known and supported and inspired to grow.
From middle grades through graduation, Avenues is more than a school—it’s a launchpad. In grades 6–12, students are not only preparing for college, but also discovering who they are, what drives them, and how they want to shape the world around them.
From day one, they’re guided by expert faculty and dedicated deans, who help each student design a path that’s right for them. Along the way, students take ownership of their learning—choosing from a rich mix of rigorous, interdisciplinary courses, signature programs, 80+ student-led clubs, and robust arts and athletics. It’s a vibrant community where students are seen, supported, and inspired to grow as scholars, leaders, and engaged citizens.
