    • Project Based/Place-Based Learning: I believe learning should be hands on and integrated, meaningful and alive. We want kids who are curious, moving, and connected to the world around them.

    • Outdoor Time is Essential: I want my own kids outside throughout the day interacting with nature.

    • Academics matter. Build excellent academic foundations in literacy, math, and science — as well as creativity and connection.

    • A community of involved parents makes the school stronger.

    • Individualized attention and small classrooms make all the difference. As parents we want our kids to be known!
