Message from the head of school
Dear families,
Welcome to The Estella School of Excellence.
I am the Head of School here, and what I see every day is simple: children do well when the adults around them know them, back them, and expect a lot from them.
At Estella, every child is known by name. Our teachers take the time to learn how each student thinks, where they are strong, and where they need more help. They then hold every child to a high standard and stay alongside them as they work to meet it.
Our classrooms are places where it is okay to get things wrong and try again. A wrong answer is a chance to learn, and a child who is not afraid to make mistakes is a child who will keep asking questions.
We teach character and academics side by side, because we believe both matter equally.
Please come and visit. Meet our teachers, sit in on a class, and see for yourself why so many families in Brewerville and beyond send their children here.
Mrs. Caroline Korfeh, MA
Head of School
