Pre-K - 8th Grade Tuition-Free

Reggio-Inspired Curriculum
This innovative learning path has been successful around the world for helping students with openness and responsiveness. CIJS focuses on the ways children think, understand, dream, explore, discover, and play!

Project-Based Learning
CIJS believes that when students are interested and involved with what they are learning, they are able to retain and think outside the box to solve any problem in any situation. Each classroom is individualized in a way that best supports our guiding principles!

Eco-Friendly
School
CIJS helps students maintain an environmentally conscious philosophy. We use recycled materials for projects, promote the use of natural materials, and teach about the sustainability of ecosystems through the care of our animals and gardens.
