Imagine a school driven by students’ interests, not by a rigid curriculum. Imagine being able to support kids through challenging times and help them grow as human beings. Imagine a school school has no screens, no pens, no paper--one that isn’t a school at all- but instead the hallways and classrooms are the streams, fields, and forests of our local outdoor spaces.
