Title
The Banner School - an independent co-educational private school for children in grades Kindergarten through 8, located in Frederick, Maryland. Offering Pre-School and Ninth Grade, beginning Fall, 2008.
Description
Since 1982, The Banner School has offered a strong liberal arts education for students in kindergarten through grade eight. Our student body includes children and families from throughout the region, and reflects diversity both culturally and socioeconomically.
Personal academic discovery and achievement abound at The Banner School, where our approach to education emphasizes the student as an individual. As has been true since our founding, we believe it is only through a close relationship with a teacher that a student's true potential can be realized. Our small class sizes allow faculty members to really know their students. Here, in an environment which promotes high standards, self-esteem, and respect for others, your child will discover an enthusiasm for learning that will last a lifetime.
The Banner School offers students a rigorous and challenging liberal arts curriculum designed to acquire basic skills while encouraging higher level critical and analytical thinking skills. Our faculty expands the boundaries of traditional studies with interdisciplinary subject matter that is explored beyond the classroom - through published works, at school assemblies, and in the community. Responding to the increasing need for international awareness and understanding, The Banner School offers both Spanish and French foreign language instruction to students at all grade levels. Art, music and drama, which stimulate creative expression and enhance academic performance, also have an important role in our curriculum. Computer use is integrated into our curriculum to help students excel in an increasingly technological world.

Additional Information
I happen to go to the Banner school and I love it there!!! Sure, we've had a lot of changes here (and hope to have some more shortly) but it is a very good educational program. It's not just school work either, it's a place to socialize with the other students. Since we are not a large school we can have more field trips, school exercises, and more playground equipment. I can sincerely say that the worst thing there is the dress code (and what kid likes a dresscode.)Overall, Banner is a great place to foster your growing mind and creativity.
