Sycamore School

Sycamore is the only private, independent school in Indiana dedicated to the education of gifted children from Preschool through 8th grade. Our mission is the following:

Sycamore School exists so that academically gifted children can experience the enriched, accelerated education they need to reach their potential and to lead responsible, constructive, fulfilling lives.

Gifted students have characteristics and needs that are unique, but as a group they comprehend complex ideas quickly, are inquisitive, and tend to learn more rapidly and in greater depth than their same-age peers. They tend to retain information in richer detail and use that information to make connections between seemingly unconnected concepts. Each gifted child is complex and unique, and Sycamore School understands and celebrates that. Simply put, gifted children are the reason for our school’s existence.
