Support and Enrichment for Early Learning
The Tatnall School’s Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) ensures that individualized, joyful learning is what all students experience and part of what makes Tatnall’s Early Childhood curriculum unique. The ACE leverages the strengths of students, families, and teachers to support a multi-sensory, Early Childhood curriculum designed to maximize every child’s potential. The ACE also provides enrichment for the youngest students who demonstrate the need to learn at an advanced level.
