We believe that each child has something to offer the learning environment, as evident in Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. Each child’s unique abilities and personality are a vital component of the learning community. We believe that student learning is more impactful when driven by the student’s interests, and our curriculum is structured around children's curiosities.
We value the importance of learning in nature in order to develop problem-solving skills, creativity and confidence.
Learning Environment
Our classrooms are designed around interest areas that promote learning and engagement in all areas of development. Each of our three classrooms utilizes natural light, wooden furniture, and nature-inspired color schemes to promote focus and harmony.
