TK-3
Terra San Francisco TK-2 is a nature-based, trilingual Mandarin, Spanish, and English program for Transitional Kindergarteners through 2nd graders.
Fluency in Spanish and/or Mandarin is achieved through a strong foundation of language immersion from Transitional Kindergarten through 2nd grade. Engaging, passionate teachers harness students' enthusiasm to accelerate traditional academic learning, with interactive projects and student-led discussions inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy.
A personalized curriculum with low student-teacher ratios empowers young minds to grow beyond what traditional classrooms offer. We aim to spark wonder, a love of learning, and 21st century leadership skills through weekly nature-based excursions. And our culture of kindness is infused throughout the community and bolstered by a dedicated Social Emotional Learning curriculum.
