The Carden
Method
The Carden Method is a language-rich, phonicsbased approach that helps children develop
clarity of thought, confidence in
communication, and a lifelong love of reading.
Beginning in Preschool, students are introduced
to the sounds, symbols, and rules that govern
language. Children understand what they read
by developing a strong mental image, not just
by sounding out words. This foundation builds
strong spelling, grammar, and analytical skills
across all subjects. Carden students
consistently demonstrate advanced reading and
writing skills and are well prepared to succeed
in High School and beyond.
The Carden
Advantage
The Carden Method is a time-tested teaching
approach that blends academics with character
development. At Carden Conejo School, we
cultivate a warm, nurturing atmosphere while
providing a curriculum that is both thorough and
challenging, designed to build each child’s
capacity for confidence and leadership.
Our program equips students with the skills
necessary to excel in reading, writing,
mathematics, science, public speaking, listening
and analysis, while also encouraging creativity
and self-expression through the arts. By
engaging both the left and right sides of the
brain, the Carden experience sparks intellectual
growth beginning in the early preschool years
and continuing through Middle School, with each
year reinforcing and expanding upon prior
learning. Our long-tenured educators bring their
expertise, enthusiasm, and passion into every
lesson. Our program ensures that students are
prepared to thrive in a competitive, knowledgebased world.
