We are currently enrolling homeschooled kindergarteners (5 - 7 years old) to join our full or half day program. Our program integrates play with academics to help students acquire skills like problem solving skills, critical thinking skills, time management, advocacy, awareness of self, and awareness of others. Being a small program allows us the ability to personalize the curriculum and lesson to each child. This means that kids are working what is developmentally appropriate for them, not what the common core or a school district says they should be accomplishing. If your child would be a good fit for our program, please reach out, we would love to tell you more and invite you for a tour.

Full/ Half Day Program:
We offer a full and half day program for our kindergarteners. We try to keep our more involved subjects, lessons, and activities in the morning, because most kids soak in information better before lunch. For our full day kiddos, they will continue into the afternoons with quiet and free play opportunities.
Please click here to see a breakdown of a typical daily schedule. The schedule will change on days there are special events or trips.
Our literacy-based curriculum integrates beloved children's books and core subjects to help students access and relate to larger themes like kindness, empathy, perseverance, advocacy, and courage. For our kindergarteners we will spread our core subjects throughout the day, with the majority of the academic lessons happening in the morning.

We believe teaching our littles to appreciate and see the joy in our environment not only can spark interest in the outdoors, but fosters real life connections to core subjects that will prove fruitful for their future. We try to stay as unplugged as possible to help foster a child's natural curiosity and engagement.

Important Information for new homeschoolers:
Please remember, for children of compulsory school age (6–16), home schooling requires advance approval by the district in which the child lives, under the policy that the school committee has adopted.
