Students learning together at Sigma Horizon School
ASTERIA

Learning for the mind, heart and life.

ASTERIA brings intellectual, emotional and social growth together so children learn not only what to know, but how to think, feel, connect and act.

A Different Way To Learn
What Is ASTERIA?

Because knowing the answer is only one part of learning.

Children also need to understand themselves, work with others and use what they know.

ASTERIA complements academic learning by paying attention to the different ways a child thinks, feels, communicates and responds to the world.

It connects knowledge with curiosity, relationships, responsibility and real-life experiences.

Strong academics. A wider learning experience.
