The Sundance School to Celebrate 40th Anniversary
There's no place like the Sundance School!
The 2016-2017 academic year marks the 40th anniversary of The Sundance School. We invite
your children to enroll in our school and to join us for the 40th Anniversary and for the many
interactive events with alumni and current families.
Founded in 1977 by local educational visionaries Jeff and Ginny Tobey, the School serves
children from age 2 through grade 5. The Sundance School is a rare gem of academic excellence AND child centered
learning—in earnest. Many of our staff have dedicated two decades or more to
Sundance!
• Sundance embodies the liberal arts. Children learn to have a deep appreciation for many
subjects and become proficient in a diverse array of skills and topics. Sundance children are
taught to be critically engaged in what they are learning, and most certainly, to be altruistic
and kind towards their peers and the larger world.
• The School boasts a student teacher ratio of 6:1, innovative curriculums, high standards, and
community collaboration. Classroom doors are always open, laughter can be heard
throughout the halls, parents are warmly welcomed, and praise and respect for others
underpin the progressive and comprehensive curriculum.
• Sundance programs provide a unique, interactive curriculum integrating imagination and
creativity to foster confidence and unlock each child’s potential. Through the creative and
performing arts and hands-on engagement in academic subject areas, students begin an
educational journey that inspires intellectual curiosity and self-discovery.
• Teachers tailor their instruction to the unique needs and interests of the students and thus
create the optimal environment in which students can succeed and position themselves for
success. Summertime at Sundance invites students, alumni, and the local community to enjoy
the Sundance Experience in the summer months.
Please call the School directly at (908) 561-5055 to schedule a tour, come to a stage production,
or visit us during the Annual Happening! We have a rolling admissions policy and are accepting
applications for the 2016/2017 academic year. For more information regarding the Sundance
Experience you may visit the School’s website at www.thesundanceschool.com.
In addition, Sundance has a wonderful summer program, which is accepting applications now.
