The Studio School (founded in 1971) educates the hearts and minds of children, ages 2-14. The school nurtures the unfolding of children's authentic spirit and character. Central to Studio`s philosophy is the knowledge that intellectual vigor and creativity must be firmly rooted in emotional balance and resilience. A Studio education is from the inside out and empowers students to integrate who they are with what they learn, cultivating a joy of learning and original thinking.

The school has pioneered and seamlessly integrated social-emotional intelligence in its How-To-Learn curriculum, fostering awareness of the individual as part of the group and the group as its own entity. The dynamics of the individual and the group are powerful tools that lead to deep and lasting scholarship, self-reliance, persistence, and healthy relationships with others. At Studio, the student-teacher relationship, with all its back and forth, is key to the student`s development.
