An Ashley Hall Education: Our Learning Spiral Curriculum

Ashley Hall has developed a teaching philosophy to guide and shape its educational programs and practices which is called The Learning Spiral. Committed to serving the intellectual, emotional, physical, and spiritual needs of each student in every phase of her development and by honoring our mission to “produce an educated woman who is independent, ethically responsible, and prepared to meet the challenges of society with confidence,” Ashley Hall has translated these philosophical principles into our curriculum, methods, and programs from our Early Education Center (co-ed 2 years-5 years) all the way through grades kindergarten to twelve. To learn more about The Learning Spiral educational philosophy of Ashley Hall, click here.
