Discovery and Learning
We love to punctuate Summer and After-School with a variety of lessons, learning targets, and mindful moments.
The experiential education model has become popular, and I can say with confidence that we practice hands-on-learning with an emphasis on Teachable Moments. Being outside in a variety of settings is a huge opportunity to engage with students.
