There is no standard child, so why should we try to force anyone to fit in a mold? We believe children are unique individuals and that they should have the freedom to stay that way.

At our school, all community members, no matter their age have an equal voice. Whether they are five or fifty-five, no one is dismissed, devalued, or overlooked.

Civic engagement and involvement in the upholding of law and order are two daily aspects of life at our school. Students learn through their actions that they have a responsibility to themselves and to their community.

We believe children are like acorns - everything they need to grow is already inside of them! All they need is trust and they blossom before our eyes.

What better way is there to prepare for life’s challenges than by practicing? We encourage our students to dream audaciously and try hard things, all the while knowing that we have their back.

Childhood is precious. At our school, students are allowed to play freely, explore fully, and question openly- that’s what being a kid is all about!

One of the central messages of our school is simply this: You are enough. Students are perfect the way they are, they do not need to change to please their teachers or to conform to an educational program.

Our school is small (between 30-35 students) and we like it that way! We believe that children thrive when they are allowed to interact freely, care for one another, and build a community that is welcoming to all.
