Spring Hill offers a rich and varied program that includes a strong academic curriculum balanced with fine arts and extracurricular activities.

Our academic program places a strong emphasis on language arts, math and science. We teach Spanish at all grade levels, including Kindergarten, because we feel modern languages are indispensable in our multicultural world. Ancient history, United States history, world culture, Latin, French, geography and algebra are incorporated into the upper grade curriculum.

Teachers supplement classroom learning with relevant field trips. These range from a simple nature walk on campus to driving trips to educational points of interest. Students in fifth grade are encouraged to attend a one-week residential science and environmental studies camp in the spring. Students in sixth grade participate in a camping trip to study the desert environment. We organize a foreign travel trip each year for upper grade students and their families.

Spring Hill provides a wide range of opportunities for students to develop their creative skills. We integrate studio art, drama, music and physical education into our curriculum for each grade level. We give all our students the opportunity to participate in these activities.
