Seeking Licensed Teachers and Home School Professionals to use acreage for On-Site Education and Farm Activity Center.



The description below is a guideline for facilitators and parents within the program and may be adjusted accordingly.

 


Our Learning Center is designed to  educate fundamentals and basic skills, build confidence through positive reinforcement, help kids learn to play well with others, and practice hands on learning, loving, and living on a real farm. 

 

Ages 1 - 3 Years Old - Day School

Ages 4 - 6 Years Old - Day School

(Home School programs and organic meal plans will become available as our school evolves as a parent/teacher rotation cooperative.) 

 


Monday - Friday  10am - 4pm

Payment is $25 per day.

Parent/Teacher time trades available upon request.

 

Your child is welcome anytime between 10am-4pm.

A drop-off/pick-up time-sheet is available for each day. You may choose 1-day up to 5-days a week throughout the year. Pay a monthly tuition for each day you sign up and create parent/teacher time trades for days that work for you.

The different age groups will be given learning tools to suit their level of understanding. The school will have an experimental garden plot to practice planting a seed, nurturing and watering for growth, and sharing the harvest with their families. 

The kids will have talent shows, musical performances, and project presentation days to be scheduled throughout the year. Any activity sheets missed will be sent home for parents to help their child complete. 

One of the most important things we encourage are healthy foods and care for all life. We will provide a healthy snack and lunch once a week on Mondays.

Special Notice:

Our farm based day school is focused on health, safety, awareness and intended for the Holistic Approach to Living Wise and Earth Conscious. 

The appropriate food and clothes are always necessary:

The shared snacks must be 100% Natural or Organic. Kids with food allergies will need to bring a list.

Bring your child prepared with a warm hat, rain jacket and mud boots during Fall Winter and Spring. We will provide gardening gloves or bring your favorite pair.

Each child will have a storage locker for an extra pair of clothes, diapers and any other personal items.  

 

IMPORTANT: 

Each child must have designated drivers on our list for pick up and drop off. Your child will not be permitted to leave with any person who does not appear on our list.
