Our School – Why Choose Us

Parent Participation:  Each family shares in the direction and operation of the school. Parents participate in the learning environment alongside our teachers, thereby fostering deeper connections with their children and the school community. Click HERE to learn more.

Play-Based Learning:  We prioritize play to support development of the whole child (cognitive, language, physical, social, emotional, creative) and foster a life-long love of learning. Click HERE to learn more.

Positive Discipline:  We practice Positive Discipline, teaching children to be responsible, respectful and resourceful members of their communities using non-punitive, respectful methods. Click HERE to learn more.

Parent Support & Coaching:  We incorporate parent education into General Meetings and provide hands-on coaching in class one week each month.  Click HERE to learn more.

Excellent Adult-Child Ratios:  We provide more individualized support for each child with high adult-to-child ratios (1:2 to 1:4).

No Potty Training Requirement:  We support families at every stage of potty readiness.
