Broadoaks School of Whittier College

The Broadoaks School Of Whittier College is a private, non-profit demonstration school serving approximately 350 children and their families each year. The school emphasizes developmentally-based early childhood, elementary and middle school education as the foundation for later school success, social responsibility, and lifelong learning. Our approach to teaching begins with our knowledge of how children develop, how they think and learn, and how their natural passion for learning can be captured so that they develop academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and ethically. The Broadoaks Children's School is an academic program at Whittier College. The school's mission is to provide a model of excellence in the care and education of children between 2 and 14 years of age and to create a dynamic center for the study of children, their education, their social worlds, and their overall well-being.
