The 4 P’s Philosophy detailed below highlights the passion of emergent learning. It emphasizes memories over memorization and is entrenched in nature play, citizen science, service learning, and community collaborations.

Play-based

A play-based approach celebrates the need for unstructured, child-led play on a daily basis.

Let them play!

Place-based

A place-based approach provided opportunities to learn about and work directly with their community.

Explore. Teach. Appreciate. Protect.

Project-based

A project-based approach aims to create curricular-connected activities aimed towards answering a guiding question.

Engaged children are happy children.

Personalized

A personalized approach allows for students to take ownership of their learning and how that learning is displayed.

It’s their learning. Let them lead!
