Ivybrook Academy, an award-winning half day pre-school, is now in session in Bluffton, South Carolina. Nestled near the gorgeous coastal Hilton Head area, Ivybrook brings its progressive approach to early childhood education to young families at its brand new campus on Cassidy Drive off Buckwalter Parkway in Bluffton.

Ivybrook Academy, headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, is nationally recognized for its progressive approach to early childhood education. The school’s curriculum combines time-tested teaching methods, including Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and Multiple Intelligence research. This hybrid approach toward learning provides a customized education that respects each child’s individual voice and instills a life-long love of learning at a young age.

Coco Jozic serves as Director of Admissions. She has been an educator for 20 years. “Through the years I’ve guided teachers as well as instruction in a variety of school environments including Montessori and public schools,” says Jozic. “I love how Ivybrook’s curriculum is tailored to every child individually. It’s not a one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Whether inside the classroom or outside on the playground, each child works at his or her own pace, it’s really all about discovery.”
