Our Facilitators
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.
Our facilitators are here to ignite curiosity, inspire creativity, and spark joy in every learner. Join us on an exciting journey where the boundaries of imagination are limitless, and the pursuit of knowledge is an enchanting adventure!
what we do
Elements of our experiential, project-based curriculum include:
​
Project Time
Learners develop their project(s) over the course of 8 weeks. Then, kids exhibit their work at our showcases three times a year.
Units of Study + Offerings
We have a number of weekly reoccurring offerings made by our dedicated and knowledgeable facilitators. In addition to these offerings, facilitators get to know their students in order to help guide students through their own project on a shared topic and framework. This in-depth project work covers curricular areas such as art, research, writing, science and history.
​
Open Studio
Learners pursue an intention or project of their choosing in our resource rich learning environment. They have access to items such as our loose parts library, large green screen, sewing area, laptops, art supplies and more.
​
Field Experiences
Learning happens everywhere! We intentionally leave the familiar grounds of our community and pursue experiences in the natural and cultural landscape around us. Field Days are some of the most exciting and valuable days for connection and learning.
​
Community Caretaking
Our community shows great respect for ourselves, each other and our space. Each learner plays a role in caring for their community members and the spaces they occupy. Our motto is to “leave it better than you found it.”
culture creation
Many people imagine that culture is something that we must simply accept, that it is unchangeable. The fact is, we can create and change culture intentionally, especially within a smaller community, such as a business or school.
This phenomenon has become more apparent since the advent of the internet, which made a variety and diversity of subcultures more visible.
Embedding values and behaviors into the culture allows us to operate without an oppressive number of rules or overbearing structure. When the created culture becomes the new norm, the need to manipulate others’ behavior through punishments, incentives, or rewards is diminished.
Because everyone is participating in the culture creation, everyone is invested in supporting it.
​
Tools that facilitate intentional culture creation serve to make implicit cultural norms explicit, help us practice new patterns of behavior through social agreement, and enhance accountability using increased visibility of intentions and results.
