of Quintessence
School of Quintessence began in 2024 with a single small class and a big vision. In just our first year, we’ve grown to nearly fifty students across three vibrant classrooms. This 2026-27 academic year we offer grades five through seven (elementary and middle school). With plans for continued growth in service to our thriving community, we are offering a new enrichment program.
