Educational Trips around Cincinnati

As part of our curriculum, students attend performances at Music Hall and the Aronoff, take in the wonders of the Newport Aquarium, and explore a variety of downtown museums every year. Fourth graders attend the swearing-in of the mayor and city council.

Armleder House System

Learning happens when students are invited to participate in the process. That’s why we’ve adopted the Ron Clark Academy’s House System. Upon enrollment, each Armleder student is sorted into one of four houses–Altruismo, Amistad, Isibindi, or Reveur. These groups provide a tangible way for students to gather in community while developing confidence, character, and school spirit.
