Argo Navis School is dedicated to creating a learning environment that ensures students are equipped to be future innovators, conscious individuals, and globally responsible citizens. Among other things, Argo Navis School provides a nurturing environment that teaches children to be socially and emotionally intelligent and environmentally responsible. The school is also inclusive, valuing diversity and actively celebrating individuality and self-expression. Argo Navis School helps children see that they are valued both in the school and in the world and that it is okay to be different. Also, the school prioritizes age-appropriate programs that are up-to-date and align with current global realities. Furthermore, the school creates individualized learning and assessment plans, which ensures that every student learns at their own pace and in their own learning style. The school believes that students are usually not all at the same place at the same time in learning, so it is important to give some students the opportunity to take on more challenging tasks, while giving other students the time and attention they need to understand topics and concepts.

Summer Break!! Yay for kids! Summer Burnout for working parents.
In the past, schools would break for the summer months starting in late May or early June and resume classes in mid to late August.
And they still do.
Believe it or not, the Summer Break harkens back to the Industrial Age when it was simply too hot for students to attend school. And it hasn't changed since.
In this current age, most families live in households with all the primary caregivers or parents working full time jobs in order to manage their financial obligations and to further their careers.
The trouble for today's family is: what do working parents/caregivers do with their children during the summer months when there is no school?
Most parents will seek out summer camps, summer school programs, or hire babysitters or nannies to care for their children when parents need to work.
Even for families attending public schools, this can be quite a hefty additional expense ranging anywhere between several hundred to several thousand dollars per child.
Additionally, most summer camps only run between 1-4 weeks and rarely last the entire day, often ending before 3:00 pm. Babysitters, child livery services, or (if you're lucky) a nearby relative are still on-call daily.
The new model in education is all about adapting-- not just to children's needs, but to families' needs as well.
The Argo Navis School schedule is year-round to accommodate families' scheduling needs, all included in the price of tuition.
And before you think this would 'rob' a child of those carefree summer days, consider this: in most summer camps children are working on various projects, creating art and music, running and playing various sports, and socializing with other children.
This is the typical week at Argo. All year.
Argo Navis School is also open until 6:00 pm each school day to accommodate working families at no extra charge.
Whether it's Argo Navis or any other school, it should be worth a discussion with your school leaders to update an outdated model to meet your family's needs.
Maybe it's time for parents to have a break this summer.
