Our Mission
Our mission is to plant seeds for a lifetime love of learning
in our students, our families, and the communities in which we live and grow.
​
Guided by our four pillars of Play, Nature, Faith, and Community,
children develop a strong foundation of connection, learning, and growth.
PLAY
Children learn naturally through play. A play-based program relies on this natural inclination as a context for learning. In this way, children learn how to discover, experiment, explore, create, and solve problems through imagination and play.
Play deepens learning and understanding in all academic content areas.
Nature
Nature-based learning engages children with the outside world and often brings natural elements into the indoor classroom as a guide for learning.
Learning about nature and spending time in the natural world highly supports development in the content areas of science, social studies, language arts, and math.
Faith
Faith-based education helps remind students of their inherent value and worth as children of God and encourages them to live their faith and share their testimonies.
Faith-based education is rooted in compassion and service for others and seeks to deepen a child's view of selflessness, acceptance, and love.​
COmmunity
Community-based learning prioritizes building relationships between students, teachers, families, and members of the community.
This type of education connects classroom learning to people, experiences, and problem-solving in the real world.
