THE CLARIDEN SCHOOL HELPS LAUNCH INNOVATORS
We are a not-for-profit, private, fully-accredited, college-preparatory school serving students PreK – Grade 12 in North Texas. Clariden works to ignite student curiosity and problem-solving skills by first providing a program that addresses the whole student. With a focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), character-based kindness, and hands-on field study, our goal is to equip students for the jobs of tomorrow and to be contributing citizens in their local & global communities.
Our award-winning curriculum is built on project-based learning. The best way to learn about us is to visit our beautiful 23-acre campus.
