Step 1:
Getting Ready. Ages and Stages!

Child’s Age.
We offer two classes: a mixed-age morning class and an afternoon prekindergarten class. Class placement is based on your child’s age as of September 1, 2026.

Morning Mixed-Age, Monday through Friday, 8:30 to 11:30 AM
This class includes children who are 2 and 3 years old by September 1, 2026.

  • Limited spaces are available for children who turn 2 on or before that date.

  • Depending on the applicant pool, we may offer rolling admissions for children as they turn 3 during the school year.

Afternoon Prekindergarten, Monday through Friday, 12:00 to 3:00 PM
Children who turn 4 on or before September 1, 2026 are invited to apply for this class.

Our cooperative Community.

  • We’re a community outdoor school rooted in equity, connection, and shared care.

  • Parents co-op in the classroom and contribute to the life of the school through committee work or board service.

  • Co-oping is flexible and supported—families can participate weekly and biweekly with accommodations for those facing challenges.

By showing up for each other, we build a strong, joyful community for children and adults alike.

Indoor & Outdoor Learning, Seamlessly Connected.

Children move easily between our outdoor classrooms and custom-built indoor space, learning to appreciate every kind of weather and the changing seasons. Rooted in play and place, our all-weather program invites curiosity, creativity, and care for the world around them.
