Everything here is natural. We don't have any plastic toys or fake dolls. Our students knit their own dolls, and we're growing grass in our Easter baskets, instead of buying the plastic grass. |
The one thing we always see our students walk away with is confidence and a sense of self. We want our students to not be afraid to be themselves, but at the same time, to respect others and respect life. |
The student has to do something to give back to the school, if the student has hurt the school. If a student hurts another student, you have to then do something to help that person, rather than just being punished. |
We want everything to be hands-on. The curriculum should be alive for the students, instead of flat ... They are challenged, but they're able to express themselves and think outside of the box and really understand topics in depth. |
Yoga is wonderful for their development. We want to educate the whole child here ? academically, spiritually, creatively, physically ... The yoga just fits. |
