About Our School

Our microschool uses personalized learning pathways that allow students to progress at their own pace. Students advance when they've demonstrated competency, receiving additional support or enrichment depending on their needs. This flexible approach accelerates learning for capable students while providing extra support for those who need it—all within mixed-age, inclusive classrooms.


Educational Philosophy: Belonging matters. We create a school community where all students feel safe, valued, and able to be authentically themselves. When students belong, they engage more fully in learning. Our inclusive practices, celebration of diversity, and strong relationships create this sense of belonging.
