Paideia’s curriculum reflects our understanding of how students learn, the variation among them, as well as our belief that curiosity and enthusiasm for learning are inherent and often contagious.

We want our students to engage fully in athletics. We want them to take a risk, try a new sport, discover their strengths, and experience the highs and lows of competition.
Campus Life
Campus Life
The culture of teaching and learning at Paideia is both personal and individualized. We strive to greet and teach each child personally, understand children individually and encourage them to develop mindful of their own relative strengths and weaknesses, interests and dispositions.

“I love that my kids always register joy when they see me at school, but never surprise; I belong there. It's so wonderful that Paideia is a school where my presence is welcomed, and that to my children, it's a given. Paideia is an extension of home.”

Pi Party - March 15, 2025

Pi Party is Paideia’s annual fundraiser and the largest gathering for our community. This year, the event returns home to campus for the first time in 20+ years.

Paideia Pi Party

Hundreds of parents and staff members will come together to raise funds for financial aid, with a goal of making the cost of a Paideia education accessible to all families. Last year’s event raised more than $300,000 to cover costs that help support the entire Paideia experience including expenses like textbooks, aftercare, class trips, athletics, arts, transportation and other required school-related activities.

What can you do to support the Pi Party?

Donate items: Parent and community donations are vital to our fundraising efforts. Have an idea or an item to donate? Please reach out.

Party: Tickets will go on sale in mid-February and we hope you join us. The event has both a silent and live auction component. Save the date for Saturday, March 15 at 6 p.m.
