Our Mission

To inspire a lifelong passion for learning by immersing every student in the wonder of our biomes and the power of creative expression. We cultivate ecoliteracy, artistic skills, and emotional resilience through meaningful projects, collaborative inquiry, and daily moments of mindfulness. This empowers young learners to become responsible stewards of the Earth and innovative contributors to society.

Our Vision

A world where children understand their role within the global ecosystem, embrace cultural diversity, and harness artistic creativity to solve real world challenges. We envision graduates who lead with curiosity, compassion, and joy, while being champions for both community well-being and planetary health.

Our Core Values

  • Two orange butterflies with black spots on yellowish wings perched on bright orange flowers surrounded by green foliage.

    Connection

    We foster deep bonds with peers, ourselves, and the natural world by exploring each biome together. This sense of interconnection teaches empathy and sparks a lifelong commitment to protecting the natural world.

  • Child's hand in a blue sleeve holding a paintbrush with multicolored paint, surrounded by bottles of paint and colorful paint splatters on white paper.

    Creativity

    Through art projects, painting desert landscapes or sculpting forest creatures, students learn to express complex ideas. Honoring each child’s creative voice builds innovation and lasting confidence.

  • Person holding a magnifying glass, which reveals a clear view of sunlight filtering through autumn-colored trees, with the background intentionally blurred to show bokeh of orange and yellow leaves.

    Curiosity

    Hands-on experiments, from soil sampling to snowmelt mapping, drive every “why?” and “how?” question. Cultivating wonder in each unit encourages lifelong discovery and scientific thinking.

  • Four children playing catch with a soccer ball in a forested area with trees and green grass.

    Joy

    We believe that learning should spark delight and wonder in every child by infusing each nature walk, art project, and classroom moment with playfulness. Joy fuels creativity, resilience, and a lifelong love of discovery.
