Overview
Our goal at Wellspring is to grow a community school where
holistically-minded families and professionals co-create
and participate in a student-led, experiential educational
environment.
Our
Vision: Holistic Education
We believe that
meaningful learning takes place in a flexible environment
where a child is allowed, in developmentally appropriate
ways, to take responsibility for his or her own education.
Students are offered experiences and encouraged according
to their own natural rhythms, pace, and interest. We
believe that fostering a culture of self-awareness and
responsibility are as important as extraordinary teachers,
small classes and social unity. We have no religious
affiliation. We do not use tests or grades as measurements
of progress and success.
Our
Rhythm Involves:
Exploration in art
Year-round outdoor play
Spanish immersion
Gardening and reverence for the earth
Outings to surrounding areas
Yoga and body movement
Community meals
