GET TO KNOW OUR LOWER SCHOOL
Nice to meet you! We're Flint Hill School, a JK-12 co-ed, independent school in Oakton, VA.
Our faculty and staff model innovation every day, setting new standards of excellence in education. We awaken each student’s curiosity and foster critical thinking that translates to deeper competencies and an enduring love of learning. We teach students how to learn — challenging them intellectually and nurturing their development socially, physically and emotionally.
As students grow with Flint Hill, they gain confidence to embrace rigor and blaze their own trail at Flint Hill, in college and beyond.
WHAT'S YOUR PLAN FOR KINDERGARTEN?
Interested in your child starting at a school where they are inspired to approach learning in a way that is already natural to them — with curiosity? Our teachers are their guides, prepared to help children discover the right tools and strategies for them to be thinkers and problem solvers. This approach builds confidence, a passion for learning, and the foundation to solve problems throughout their lives.
Secure a spot in Junior Kindergarten or Kindergarten to avoid the waitpools and the hassle of a longer application process, stressful testing, and gathering recommendation letters later in your child's life. Consider partnering early with Flint Hill, a JK-12 school, and your student won't need to switch schools for 7th or 9th grade.

Schedule a tour of the Lower School. If you're not quite ready for an in-person tour, try watching an event recording.
RIGOR VS. PRODUCTIVE STRUGGLE
Rather than focusing on teaching a grade level ahead, we focus on “teaching up,” which is that sweet spot between challenging and frustratingly hard. See what "productive struggle" looks like at Flint Hill.

Meet with Dawn Hopke, our Lower School Admission Officer, to review your child's needs and your options. She'll help answer any questions or concerns you might have about your young student starting school!
