Our Programs

We believe in the importance of mixed- age classes. Learning to work constructively with others of different abilities prepares students for adult life, and builds relationships that last a lifetime!

Primary

Our youngest students, ages TK and K, have the opportunity to direct their own learning and play in a beautiful and natural prepared environment, both in and outdoors. They practice choice making, motor skills, and courtesy toward others, all while building a strong foundation in math, reading and writing.
