Synopsis
We believe that childhood is a time to foster wonder, creativity, and discovery through play and exploration. We believe that children learn because they want to, not because they're forced to. And we believe in letting them learn at their own pace. We believe in giving children an abundance of opportunities, time, and access to beauty-like art, music, literature, nature, and their own imaginations. We believe this path isn't just for childhood but for a lifetime of pursuing their own interests, responding to life and not bells, and building a life based on purpose, not perfections. We are the misfits, the renegades, the square pegs in round holes. But we are not alone. We have each other. And we are in this Together.
