The Mount Sinai School Primary Years Program
Inspiring Young Minds Through Inquiry, Creativity, and Compassion
The Mount Sinai School Primary Years Program (PYP) offers a dynamic and engaging educational experience for children in Grades 1 through 5. Rooted in a holistic, inquiry-based approach, our PYP nurtures the intellectual, emotional, and social development of young learners, laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
Our Educational Approach
We believe that children learn best when they are encouraged to ask questions, explore ideas, and make meaningful connections to the world around them. Our curriculum is designed to:
Promote Curiosity and Critical Thinking: Through hands-on learning and interdisciplinary units, students become active participants in their own education.
Foster Global Awareness: Our learners explore local and global issues, helping them develop empathy, responsibility, and a broader worldview.
Encourage Creativity and Expression: From visual arts to music and storytelling, we nurture every child’s creative potential.
Build Essential Skills: Students develop strong literacy, numeracy, and communication skills alongside collaboration, self-management, and resilience.
A Supportive Learning Environment
Our dedicated and compassionate teachers work closely with students to understand their individual strengths, learning styles, and goals. Small class sizes ensure that each child receives personalized attention in a safe, inclusive, and joyful classroom setting.
Beyond the Classroom
At Mount Sinai, learning extends beyond academics. Character education, leadership opportunities, extracurricular activities, and community engagement are all integral parts of the Primary Years experience.
Partnering with Families for Student Success
We value strong home-school partnerships and believe that collaboration with parents is key to nurturing confident, capable learners.
