Get to Know Our Divisions

Lower School—Early Childhood
Preschool-2nd Grade

Young children are naturally enthusiastic and curious. Our approach to learning in Lower School—Early Childhood begins with meeting children where they are and allowing them to develop at their own pace, by nurturing their sense of inquiry, joy and confidence.

Lower School—Elementary
3rd-5th Grade

Lower School—Elementary is a time of exciting developmental, socio-emotional and intellectual changes for children. At Calhoun, we tailor our approach to the needs and potential of individual students, inspiring their love of learning and preparing them to thrive.

Middle School
6th-8th Grade

The Middle School is marked by Calhoun’s joyful spirit. You'll find mathematicians tackling algebraic puzzles, scientists creating catapults, and writers publishing their own literary magazine. The course work is multicultural, project-oriented, and designed to stretch students’ thinking from the concrete to the abstract.

Upper School
9th-12th Grade

Calhoun's Upper School is a strong foundation for growth. The breadth of academic opportunities challenges students to dig deeper, think outside the box and unlock their potential.
