This immersion approach aims to cultivate global citizens who appreciate diverse cultures.
Sports such as tennis and soccer start at age 3, promoting physical development and teamwork. STEM programs are offered during the school year and in the summer to encourage hands-on, inquiry-based learning.
SELA: The International Private School offers a specialized immersion environment where students from three months old through sixth grade develop fluency in English, Spanish, and Mandarin. The Hingham campus features an Elementary Facility equipped with a dedicated technology lab for 3D printing and a gross motor lab utilizing the Lu interactive playground system. The curriculum is vertically aligned, meaning each grade builds directly upon the skills of the previous year to ensure steady progress in core subjects like mathematics and science. A distinctive feature of the school is its commitment to global citizenship through active international partnerships; students participate in pen pal programs with peers in Chile and Honduras to apply their language skills in real-world contexts. Additionally, the school integrates a unique performing arts tradition where all students, including infants, engage in music and movement, culminating in a professional-style annual play that fosters public speaking and leadership.
