Our lower elementary academic hub expands on our philosophy of student-directed, applied learning. Students are afforded the freedom to progress at their own pace and learn from others in our multi-age classrooms. Rather than force a child into an artificial construct determined by arbitrary rules, we encourage students to learn at their own pace and place them according to their natural academic, social, and emotional growth. This results in better outcomes all around, with a happier, more confident, and better educated student ready to take on the challenges of the complex world in which we live.

Our certified teachers guide rather than lead the class, allowing for the natural development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills as students tackle a multitude of various inquiry-based learning projects. Our IMPACT learning model extends learning beyond the classroom into the community to promote connection and stewardship, offering experienced-based learning opportunities not possible within the confines of a traditional classroom.
