School Philosophy and Mission
"She believed that each child is born with a unique potential to be revealed, rather than as a "blank slate" waiting to be written upon. Her main contribution to the work of those of us raising and educating children are in these areas:
Preparing the most natural and life supporting environment for the child.
Observing the child living freely in this environment.
Continually adapting the environment in order that the child may fulfill his greatest potential - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?

Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
