that it has moved to a beautifully remodeled and expanded location in Ballard, the school is really growing into it's new space, giving the educators and kids a chance to grow into this new space. All pre-K through 5th-grade students attend core classes of Reading, Science, Math, Language Arts and Art DAILY! The children go outside 1-hour daily, rain or shine, for PE-Recess.

They do a beautiful job of educating and growing a life-long passion for learning. Read less
