Our school yard is an Outdoor Classroom utilized year round.
Children climb, build, garden, rake, shovel snow, identify plants
and wildlife, and explore and experiment with nature in this space
everyday. We gather, count, and cook with fruits and vegetables
gathered from these gardens and from our apple, cherry, pear, and
mulberry trees. Our charming school also backs to Hiestand Woods
Conservation Park, allowing easy access to over 45 acres of open
space, wooded trails, playgrounds and greenways.
