Elementary
Our Elementary Program
We group students primarily by age. There is a Lead Teacher with each group of students. The max number of students in a group is 10. The same Lead Teacher is with their group of students all day, each school day your student comes. These teachers guide their students through Learning Stations set up all around our 6-acre farm. The students visit 3-4 stations each day (depending on if they stay the 3- or 4-hour program).
Each of our Learning Stations have a Station Teacher. However, the student’s Lead Teacher stay with their students alongside the Station Teacher while visiting that Learning Station. The stations are Nature, Garden, Art & Science, Music, Homestead, and Kitchen. We have the Stations on a rotating schedule, so students can visit a different schedule of stations each day they attend. We carve out roughly 20-30 minutes for snack/lunch and recess. Additionally, Station Teachers integrate visiting and caring for the farm animals into lesson plans in conjunction with their Learning Station.
