Curriculum

Seventeen learning domains, woven into one joyful day

We don't teach subjects in blocks. Literacy lives in the block corner, math lives at snack, and science lives in the garden. Expand any domain below to see exactly how.

How it works

Emergent investigations, intentional teaching

Teachers document children's questions each week, then design provocations, small-group lessons, and materials that push the thinking further. Progress is measured three times a year against Oregon Early Learning Standards.

Assessment

How we know it's working

Three developmental checkpoints a year, portfolios that follow your child from room to room, and conferences where you see the actual evidence.

  • Fall baseline

    Observation-based assessment in the first six weeks, shared at your October conference.

  • Winter check

    A mid-year progress snapshot with specific goals for the spring, plus any referrals.

  • Spring portfolio

    Work samples, photos, and a written narrative you keep — and a kindergarten readiness summary in Pre-K.

The best way to understand our approach is to watch a classroom for twenty minutes. Come during the school day.
