Admissions

The school is a parent-led, professionally-run cooperative dedicated to fostering exploration, play, and the lifelong love of learning. Under the direction and in partnership with our certified teachers, the parents form a community that encourages caring for all of the children and families, a sharing of ideas, skills, concerns, and values.

 

Every morning my daughter asks, ‘Is it a school day?’ and is thrilled when the answer is ‘Yes!’
