"Whatever an education is, it should make you a unique individual, not a conformist; it should furnish you with an original spirit with which to tackle the big challenges; it should allow you to find values which will be your roadmap through life; it should make you spiritually rich, a person who loves whatever you are doing, wherever you are, whomever you are with; it should teach you what is important, how to live and how to die.” John Gatto

"Play is the highest form of research."

~ Albert Einstein

Outdoor Nature Enrichment Program

(Fridays in the Fall and Spring)

Every Friday in the Fall and Spring, we meet at the beautiful and scenic Martial Cottle Park which is also known for its organic farming and gardening. The children enjoy free outdoor explorations, connecting with nature and building friendships. The children also volunteer at the Master Gardeners program to learn about growing food, composting, identifying California native plants, and sustainability. The Outdoor enrichment program gives children the opportunity to experience the natural world and engage in meaningful work.

For one Friday a month, we have our monthly field trips to museums, aquariums, farms etc. to further enrich the children's learning experience outside the classroom.
