We challenge and
support our students.
Miss Mae Carden developed the Carden Curriculum and teaching methodology with the whole child in mind. At Carden Academy of Whittier, our faculty and staff work together to create enriching, challenging, and memorable classroom experiences for every student.
We prioritize small group instruction.
With small class sizes, we are able to individualize our way of teaching to each student's specific needs and implement a philosophy of learning that our students can apply anywhere. Our faculty challenges each student to achieve high standards while capturing a full comprehension of the material and the opportunity to revisit and strengthen concepts when needed. Additionally, our teachers go above and beyond teaching "standard" learning objectives. They teach critical thinking, problem-solving, and socialization skills that are essential for the success of each student.
We know our
students very well.
Our small school environment allows for our faculty and staff to make genuine connections with our students. We know the areas in which your child excels and when we can challenge them. We provide every student with individualized attention to aid them in building confidence throughout their academic journey.
