Curriculum

Free, world-class education centered on the whole child. 

Zeta’s rigorous school curriculum develops students’ critical thinking skills and enables them to apply knowledge to solve challenging, real-world problems.  We start with a foundation of world-class academics that empowers students to follow a fulfilling life path of their own choosing.

Elementary: Pre-K to 5th Grade

At Zeta, students study Reading, Writing, Math, and Science every day. 

Students embark on a  journey to becoming lifelong learners and readers! During Guided Reading, students receive individualized support in small groups based on their specific reading level. Reading Workshop provides a time for teachers to lead the entire class, teaching reading skills for both fiction and non-fiction. During daily Independent Reading, students have the opportunity to dive into their favorite books and practice their reading skills.

Specialties

Specialty activities are an important mechanism for students to come to know and challenge themselves and discover their passions. Their identity begins to form around their preferred specialty areas, and they grow in character and confidence. Some of the specialty activities available at Zeta are below.

Music

Music allows students to explore and express themselves freely through singing and instruments. Zeta is deeply committed to music education for students starting at a young age because of the creativity, collaboration, and joy it fosters. At Zeta, middle school students have the opportunity to dive deeper into areas of interest through music electives and orchestra club.
