Our scholars receive personalized, individual instruction tailored to their needs and learning style. Each kindergarten through 2nd-grade classroom has two teachers to make learning individualized and joyful.

We’ve also expanded our Exceptional Student Education Program to include support for multilingual learners, learners with IEPs, and more.

Foundational Skills for a Choice-Filled Life

Our goal is to help scholars live a choice-filled life, and from day 1, your child will develop skills that they'll use for the rest of their life through a robust and literacy-focused curriculum. Our culture extends beyond the classroom, and our teachers, staff, families, and scholars come together as pillars of our community - a place where everyone feels welcome and uplifted.

It’s a great time to be a part of the Breakthrough family! Here's why:

  • Your whole family can attend the same campus!

    Each campus is K-8, so your entire family can grow and thrive at the same school from kindergarten to 8th-grade graduation!

  • Caring & dedicated staff

    These folks are here to inspire a love of learning and get to know your child by providing the individualized support they need. This includes two licensed teachers in each kindergarten through 2nd-grade classrooms.

  • We're committed to literacy!

    We give every scholar the literacy and reading skills they need to achieve in school and beyond. Instilling a love of reading improves writing and speaking skills, vocabulary, and self-confidence. All teachers are trained and focused on literacy.

  • Two-way communication

    Open lines of communication with BPS families create a support system to help your child thrive in school. We share all kinds of updates; what we’re learning, progress updates, reminders, events, and more—you’ll always be in the loop and informed.

  • The safety and well-being of every scholar is our number one priority

    We take the safety and well-being of every scholar very seriously and have a zero-tolerance policy for bullying. You can rest assured that your child will be safe at Breakthrough.
