At Emerson, your child’s curiosity shapes their experience enabling remarkable growth.
We focus on the unique complexity of your child to elevate their innate enthusiasm for even deeper learning. The more our team learns, the more inspired they become to provide what’s needed to keep your child’s engagement high. Emerson students realize how great school, their teachers, and they can be.
At Emerson, we believe that when a student’s curiosity, intellect, interests, and identity are allowed to shape their learning experience, a whole new level of possibility is revealed. We’ve purposefully designed an innovative approach and a specialized environment that nurtures each child’s natural talents, builds on their strengths, and elevates their enthusiasm, enrichment, and excitement to match the very heights of their potential.
Here are some numbers that we think are pretty important.

This free family-friendly performance is open to all Emerson families, and we’d love to fill the AIC with support and excitement for our amazing cast and crew.
Students and families recently enjoyed a special evening designed to help them “look ahead” to the exciting opportunities that await them as they continue their Emerson journey.

Students had the chance to explore, ask questions, and try hands-on activities as they discovered what future years at Emerson have in store. A joyful, engaging night filled with curiosity, inspiration, and the promise of all that’s ahead.

💀✨ Día de los Muertos Meets Design Thinking!
In QUEST Tech, our 3rd graders took a creative detour from their Finch Robotics to celebrate Día de los Muertos with some illuminated flair! Using LED lights, coin cell batteries, and conductive fabric tape, students brought their hand-colored skulls to life—lighting up their designs with glowing eyes and plenty of imagination.
At Emerson, even celebrations become opportunities to explore circuits, creativity, and culture.
The mission of Emerson School is to provide a dynamic and nurturing learning environment that fosters empathy, communication, creativity, leadership, and above all, a lifelong love of learning.
We fulfill our mission with small class sizes, by providing individualized attention across a broad and rich, student-centered curriculum and through a committed, talented team of educators who help children achieve sustained academic success.
