Our preschool program runs Monday through Friday and follows a consistent daily rhythm.

Summer Camp Schedule
June through August
Our Creative Arts Summer Camp follows a similar daily rhythm to the school year, but with a focus on even more outdoor time, nature exploration, and open-ended creativity. Campers explore trails, dive into themed art projects, and enjoy plenty of movement and fun in a relaxed summertime setting.
Families may register:
By the week – Choose 2, 3, or 5 days per week
By the month – Get a discounted rate when enrolling full-time
Each week has its own nature-inspired theme, and our enrichment classes continue through the summer, offering variety and consistency for returning students.
