The Farm SchoolWe are a K-12 educational resource center serving day students from The Farm community and the surrounding area, an umbrella for off-Farm home-based learners The Farm School Satellite Campuses Program (TFSSC) and a homeschool resource center.
At The Farm School we seek to nurture diverse individuals as they work and play towards personal, community and planetary wellbeing.
We are a community school.
Our school is a community of diverse individuals connected by deep relationships; we all learn with and from each other. We invite our community to join us in our school and we spend much of our time learning out in the community.
We use a responsive project-based curriculum.
We learn science, math, technology, social science and communication arts (i.e., languages, music and other art forms) as well as other social, emotional and practical skills as we engage in projects that come from our hearts.
We are an agreement school.
Our school governance is one of our key ongoing projects. We make agreements about how we function as a school (e.g., how we: resolve conflicts, schedule activities and do assessment) during meetings where each of us has an equal voice.
