At OGS, we believe that childhood is the time to wonder and explore, a period in which the critical foundation for the journey of a human being is begun - continuing into the early grade school years, puberty, and adulthood. These are the times to create memories that will sustain our children throughout their whole lives. We must not force our children to perform for adult standards by compromising their early childhood experience. We believe in children's innate interest and capacity for learning.
