INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS

Success For All Students

NATIVITY SCHOOL

W

hen the time comes to send your child to

school, a wide variety of options throughout the

Lowcountry are available. Education is paramount,

of course, but other types of growth are important as well.

Since its inception in 1960, Nativity School has been

encouraging the intellectual, spiritual

and physical growth of young

children between pre-kindergarten and eighth grade. Nativity

School serves students from the Church of the Nativity

on James Island, Holy Spirit on Johns Island and Our

Lady of Good Counsel on Folly Beach, as well as from the

surrounding community.

“Generations of families have sent their children to Nativity

School for the academic excellence and nurturing environment,

which is our tradition,” Principal Patti Dukes commented.

The style of teaching at Nativity, according to Dukes,

“focuses on the whole child.” She pointed out that

classroom instruction centers on the student and encourages

individuals to meet their unique potential. In addition to a

well-rounded academic environment, the school employs a

nature trail, obstacle course and outside classroom for other

learning opportunities.

“The outdoor classroom gives teachers and students

opportunities for exploration and expanding knowledge,”

Dukes pointed out.

Nativity School recently incorporated a new program

known as ASPIRE (Achieving Student Potential in a

Resourceful Environment) in an effort to include students

with diverse learning styles within the regular classroom and

“to support the success of all students.”

“Nativity School totally prepared me for the academic

rigors of high school,” commented recent graduate Marisa

Giuliani. “And the values that I learned at Nativity School

prepared me for serving my community.”

With a curriculum focusing on the overall growth of each

child, it’s no wonder Nativity School shines above the rest.
