We are an independent elementary school, and a thriving community, located in Seattle.

We pride ourselves in:

• Growing learners — Our students grow to know themselves as learners through KapKa’s project-based and evidence-based curriculum. As an intentionally low-tech school, we interweave academics, the arts, and a connection to the world around us, focusing on learning that is interactive and alive with inspiration.

• Teaching through connection — Adults model care, responsibility, and interconnectedness, through our cooperative and community-based model, as children develop leadership and collaboration skills through our social-emotional learning program. Our SEL program lives and breathes in everything we do.

• Staying small — This means so many things at KapKa. We keep our school and class sizes small (16 students or less). With one grade per class, and a student-to-teacher ratio of 8:1, everyone knows your child. We honor childhood and play, and hone in on each student’s path through childhood. We never strive to be flashy or trendy. We are qualified educators and staff, scaffolding student growth through intentional curriculum and connection.
