Cosmic Education Approach
Beyond academics—children explore the interconnectedness of all things through Great Lessons, Going Out programs, hands-on farming, nature connection, and real-world community engagement.
Child-Centered Philosophy
Learning paced to each child's readiness and interests. Freedom within carefully prepared limits. Self-correcting materials that build confidence and independence. Focus on the whole child—intellectual, social, emotional, and physical.
Respect-Centered Culture
