La Scuola

Experiencing life, while discovering earth.

Toddler - 8th Grade 

La Scuola is a progressive forest school that is tucked within 3 acres of lush and sprawling forest, surrounded by mature trees, an abundance of wildlife, and beautiful edible landscapes. The nature that surrounds our school is at the heart of our philosophy. At La Scuola, it is our belief that the exploration of the natural world is the richest source of learning. Our progressive school is also heavily inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach. Ultimately, La Scuola blends the principles of the Reggio Emilia approach with our love of nature to create a profound and beautiful learning journey for our students. Through rich and meaningful experiences in nature, the development of ideas and theories with facilitators and peers, and the expression of these ideas through the hundred languages of children, our students develop a lifelong love of learning, an appreciation for the environment, and a profound sense of environmental stewardship along the way.
