Our Programs

Experiential, hands on learning that promotes critical thinking, artistic expression, and respect for individual differences while fostering a lifelong joy of learning.

Our school programs emphasize a experiential approach to education, focusing on enriching each student’s life at every stage of development.

This philosophy, inspired by Mrs. Johnson’s belief in the importance of sensory stimulation, prioritizes hands on learning. We encourage students to explore concepts through direct observation, experimentation, and critical thinking. Instead of relying solely on textbooks, we learn by observing nature, conducting research, and drawing our own conclusions.

Early Life

Traditionally known as preschool and Kindergarten, we use the name Early Life to denote the development of the younger years. These years are foundational and incredibly important in how the child’s brain and emotional intelligence develops.

First Life

Our First Life classes are composed of children at the ages found in 1st and 2nd grade classrooms. When children are in combined age classrooms, the learning expounds and more is gained in emotional and social development.

Second Life

As our brains develop we transition from concrete thinking to more abstract concepts, usually between ages 8 and 9, when students are at the age where they typically enter 3rd and 4th grade.

Third Life

At ages 10 and 11, we have all the skills we need for reading, researching and experimenting and are ready to define ourselves and create our own goals. This program enriches the growth needed at this stage.

Enrichment is found in every room.

Our enrichment classes seek to support the full development of mental capacities of each student, and nurture aspects of their self to promote the growth of the entire being.
