About Our School

We apply classical educational principles in our intimate microschool, creating space for deep engagement with meaningful ideas and careful development of reasoning and expression skills. Through discussion, analysis, and writing, students grapple with questions that matter. Our approach develops both knowledge and wisdom—the ability to think well about important questions.


Educational Philosophy: We encourage questions, investigation, and exploration as core to learning.

Meet Your Teacher

Melyna K.
Melyna K.

After years in traditional classrooms, I discovered my true calling in microschool education where I can really get to know each student and their family. I believe in creating a joyful learning environment where mistakes are celebrated as learning opportunities and curiosity is encouraged. I love integrating arts, movement, and nature into my teaching. When I'm not at school, I enjoy painting, yoga, and exploring local trails with my dog.
