From Foundation to Future

At Beyond the Books Academy, we believe that early childhood education is most impactful when it nurtures the whole child – emotionally, socially, intellectually, and physically.


Our approach combines structured learning with playful discovery, ensuring children feel supported, confident, and curious. We embrace small class sizes to foster meaningful connections and individualized attention, and we honor each child’s unique developmental pace.

Rooted in creativity, compassion, and community.

Since 2014, Tanisha Taylor Jones has led our mission to nurture confident, capable young learners prepared to thrive in every stage of their journey.

 

Our premiere prep school supports dedicated educators in building joyful, effective classrooms.

We prepare students not only for academic readiness but for lifelong success beyond the books.
