Additional information

Our curriculum is generated by the children and by their response to and interactions with the world around them. We value children’s innate curiosity and believe that by creating opportunities for learning that stem from children’s interests we are able to help children build the skills that are necessary to become life-long learners.

At school, children play and create artwork. They build imaginary worlds with big blocks. We plant our garden in the spring and harvest in the fall. We grind wheat to make flour, and tap our maple tree to make sap. Within every activity there are opportunities for problem solving, critical thinking, joy and humor. We embrace the philosophy that learning should be developmentally appropriate and meaningful to children’s everyday lives. We offer regular and extended day options.
