Patterns Enrichment exists to serve the love of learning, from the very young onward.

Through small group classes, we aim to help students find their area of perfect challenge in any given subject, whether it be math, reading, science, language or more.

In a small group, with a good teacher, enormous progress can be made, and beyond academic achievement, students can learn to value their own ability to reason, to think abstractly and to engage with new ideas using analysis and imagination.

The center includes two classrooms, one larger and one smaller, and efforts were made to create an environment conducive to focus and learning. Children walk into the doors and are in a third space of learning. Not the school, where they spend their days, not home, but someplace different. Teachers can meet students in this space and set the norms, the understandings and the specific way in which they can build on their knowledge.
