Academics At Lake Geneva Primary School
We are a K-2 school, with plans for advancing grades in the near future.
Reading & Writing at Lake Geneva Primary School
Writing comes to life through hands-on tools like special writing paper, easels, light boards, and whiteboards—giving students many ways to practice and express their ideas. Along the way, children learn through games and interactive activities that build strong reading skills while also encouraging confidence, collaboration, and social growth.
Mathematics at Lake Geneva Primary School
Math at Lake Geneva Primary School is hands-on, engaging, and designed to make sense to young learners. We believe children learn math best by doing, so lessons include songs, games, movement, and plenty of hands-on materials they can touch, build, and explore.
Through gentle repetition, pattern recognition, and real-world problem-solving, students build strong math skills and confidence while developing a deep understanding of numbers that truly sticks.
Learning happens both indoors and outdoors, with curriculum designed to reinforce skills through hands-on experiences in our Outdoor Learning Centers.
Outdoor Centers
Discovery Yard – Our play yard encompasses several learning zones, including the Builder’s Zone, Water Movement & Fluid Dynamics, Geometry & Spatial Pathways, and the Sorting, Classification & Data Garden. The zones are designed to develop foundational skills such as spatial reasoning, directionality, symmetry, problem solving, early algebraic thinking, balance, weight, estimation & cause-and-effect reasoning – all in a fun, playful atmosphere.
The Canopy – The wooded canopy, with treehouses and a hammock hide-away, offers a whimsical outdoor learning space for students to connect with nature, explore, engage in imaginative play and practice reflection.
The Reading Treehouses offer a peaceful outdoor space where students can relax, listen to teacher-led stories, and gather in small reading circles. During story time, children explore ideas that naturally connect to science and social studies, sparking curiosity, questions, and meaningful conversations.
Small-group reading circles encourage children to share thoughts, practice listening and speaking skills, and grow as confident readers—all while enjoying the calm, engaging atmosphere of the outdoors, which enhances focus, connection, and learning.

Non-discrimination Policy
Lake Geneva Primary School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. Lake Geneva Primary School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, or other school-administered programs.
Lake Geneva Primary School is committed to serving a diverse community of learners. As a small, specialized K–2 program with an emphasis on outdoor experiential learning, hands-on instruction, and small-group teaching, we evaluate each applicant individually to determine whether our program is an appropriate educational fit.
While we strive to support a wide range of learners, Lake Geneva Primary School may not be able to accommodate students whose educational, medical, behavioral, or therapeutic needs require specialized services, one-on-one support, or clinical interventions beyond the scope of our current staffing, training, and facility resources.
Admission decisions are made in the best interest of the child and the overall learning community, based on our ability to reasonably support the student within our existing program structure.
