Reviewed:

Kids are free to be kids. Some are in underwear, some are in masks, some have marker on their arms. The school is set in the middle of the woods where hiking is often a daily activity, and mandatory circle time is not. They help kids learn how to talk to one another rather than using time outs. All of the teachers are also certified to instruct swimming in the adjacent pool. This is a great school where my child is learning and having a chance to be a child at the same time.
