A World-Class Educational Program

Our mission is to light the path of dreams by creating exceptional educational environments that champion humanity and inspire students to become skilled, curious, and compassionate risk takers that act with purpose to achieve their dreams and create a better world.

We are located in a quiet and safe neighborhood in West Nashville (Hillwood) on a 9-acre lot with tons of outdoor space, playground, and a 10 classroom building.  We are currently enrolling for Pre-K 3 (3-4 year olds), Pre-K 4 (4-5 year olds), and Pre-K 5 (5+ year olds).  Kindergarten will open in August 2026.

At Stellaris, we believe children thrive when they feel heard, seen, supported, and inspired. From day one, we nurture their natural curiosity and help them fall in love with learning. Our modern, inquiry-based approach, combined with Spanish immersion and a diverse international faculty, creates an environment where every child grows confident, joyful, and ready for a world full of possibilities.

Our program helps children build strong academic foundations and develop the skills, confidence, and global awareness they’ll carry for life:

• International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme

We utilize the IB’s inquiry-based educational program to allow students to flourish through project oriented units that make learning exciting and fun.  How do bubbles work?  How are houses made?  Why is the sky blue?  Why is the sun hot?  We empower kids to ask fundamental questions about our world and help them take ownership of their learning in order to answer them.

• Language Immersion

Acquisition of languages at an early age not only provides children with an invaluable skill that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives but also opens the door to cross cultural competency and an ability to empathize with others.  We offer Spanish immersion starting in Pre-K and Chinese Mandarin language training starting in 3rd grade.

• International Faculty

We bring the best teachers from around the world to deliver our innovative program and to infuse the classroom with the knowledge and life experiences that our teachers bring with them, no matter where they come from.  This allows children to develop a broad perspective and be better prepared as they grow and pursue their dreams.

• Secular and Multicultural

Stellaris seeks to create a rich multicultural environment that is representative of what our students will encounter when they go out into the world.  The combination of our international faculty, the inquiry-based International Baccalaureate program, and our language immersion approach sets Stellaris apart.
