The Juniper School, nurturing environment, small class sizes, exceptional educational


A nurturing environment and small class sizes give scholars the personal attention they need to have an exceptional educational experience. In smaller classes, each child is seen as a unique, whole person, and we can meet a wide variety of student needs, including gifted students and English language learners.



TJS students get ready for the future through mental, physical, and social-emotional preparation in a diverse and family-friendly environment. We prioritize well-being, mindfulness, and kindness. Every student can succeed at The Juniper School - and it's tuition free!
