Children's House

There are no limits for children this age; they have boundless energy and unlimited curiosity. Our classrooms encourage exploration with sensorial materials—objects to touch, hold, move, spin, and smell—and everything is sized to fit the child’s hand. The 3-year cycle provides a close community and the opportunity for younger children to observe and learn from older students. The curriculum is rich and includes practical life skills, language, math, geography, science, nature, art, music, and Spanish. And every lesson stresses the use of grace and courtesy.

Children's House Experience

What was so amazing to me was how quickly [the teacher] came to understand my child. He “got” her. And because he understood her he was able to inspire and motivate her to be her best. His observations were uncanny.  He would say, “I can see she is right on the cusp of abstract thinking. In about two weeks, watch her. You’ll be amazed at the difference.” He was always right. —Children's House Parent
