“We cannot know the consequences of suppressing a child's spontaneity when he is just beginning to be active. We may even suffocate life itself. That humanity which is revealed in all its intellectual splendor during the sweet and tender age of childhood should be respected with a kind of religious veneration. It is like the sun which appears at dawn or a flower just beginning to bloom. Education cannot be effective unless it helps a child to open up himself to life."
 

~ Maria Montessori

Field Trips

We will attend several field trips each year. The field trips are designed to enhance the subject of study. The school is closed on the days of the field trips; your child may attend the field trip with her/his class or you may keep your child home that day.

Because we are a small school, it is the participation of the parent volunteer drivers that make field trips possible.

See the school calendar for specific info on elementary, kindergarten, & preschool fieldtrips.
