The Learning Tree Primary School is a down to basics style school designed to provide Kindergarten and Elementary age children an advanced quality program to prepare them for the next level of learning. Our teachers are allowed to be who they have desired to be as teachers working with the A-Beka Curriculum. The Learning Tree Primary is a new ministry of the Fort Caroline Learning Tree ulitizing similar concepts of the successful preschool program working with the total child, allowing them to excel at their individual pace.

We are proud of our Preschool Program. Over the years we have heard so many parents say, "I wish my child could spend just one more year with you." So, we made that possible for your family in a private Kindergarten and now Primary School; we will be through Fifth Grade by 2010.

The Classrooms are beautiful and spacious located at our parent school, The Fort Caroline Learning Tree. We have a low teacher to student ratio. Primary School hours are

9:00 am - 3:00pm. The Learning Tree will provide extended hours at the location of your choice, with transportation to and from Hidden Hills Learning Tree available. Our tuition is affordable and broken down into easy payments like our Preschool Program. So, no large fees due all at once, and we offer "Kindergarten & Primary School Only", or full day tuition rates to meet your needs.

We begin our school year's curriculum where we left off at the time of preschool graduation or the previous level of completion. We use the A-Beka Curriculum in the traditional school format. This is a Bible based curriculum, and it allows children to excel to their abilities and not just age. Our children are excelling well above the public school programs, just ask any parent whose child has been, or is in our program. Each child for Kindergarten must be five years of age by September 1st.

Mission Statement

4.           To fill each child with a giving spirit through example.
