Student Life

Creative Minds celebrates and embraces individuality while fostering a strong and compassionate community. Throughout the school day and beyond, we create diverse opportunities for students to explore and pursue their unique interests and talents.

The heart of our school is experienced through Community Meetings. It’s a special time when we share our learning experiences, honor our international connections, and align ourselves with our personal goals of being respectful, adaptable, thinkers, resilient, communicators, ethical, collaborative, and empathetic.

 

Before and After Care Program

Creative Minds will provide before and after-care services for all grade levels during the 2026-27 school year. Their customized programs allow students to learn and thrive in a safe, familiar setting with a professional staff.

 

Before School runs from 7:15 am to 8:15 a.m. Students attending Before School play games, read, and have breakfast before School begins. The program starts.
