Signature learning experiences
Learning that feels alive
Gardening & Nature
Grow, harvest, understand
Children plant, grow, harvest, and learn about food through seasonal gardening experiences.
Depending on the season, they may grow: Corn, Strawberries, Cilantro, Pumpkins, and Cabbage.
They also enjoy fresh fruit from our trees and produce from our Modesto garden.
Spanish Immersion
Language woven into daily life
Language learning happens naturally through daily conversations, songs, activities, stories, and routines. Children are exposed to both English and Spanish throughout the day.
Creative Learning
Create, move, wonder
Our children participate in circle time, music & movement, arts & crafts, science activities, group projects, and sensory play.
