Our Covid Response

Living through a pandemic causes one to re-examine their values. As a preschool community, we place a high priority on the mental and physical health of children, and we all agreed that social interaction is essential for young children. We made a collective decision to make in-person attendance at school possible in 2020 by reducing class sizes, doing daily health screenings, following enhanced cleaning protocols, and holding ALL of our classes outside.

We were committed to nature-inspired learning prior to the pandemic, and we decided to embrace that and fully immerse ourselves in the great outdoors to make it so school could go on. And what a rewarding experience it has been!

The children couldn't be happier. They are active, engaged, and building strong brains and bodies. Older siblings are jealous of the time their littles get to spend playing outside while they are doing virtual school.
 
For so many reasons, 2020 will be a year to remember. Our year outside will be one of them!
