Orchard School
We are a K-6 non-profit private elementary school, situated on a 14-acre campus, with a large, organic garden, an animal program, rich hands-on opportunities in science, math and language arts and a dedication to the arts. Our campus is an integral part of the student experience at Orchard School.
Teachers use every opportunity to bring the learning outside and allow children to interact with nature. In science, students might spend weeks tracking the bird activity around bird feeders they built in a carpentry elective. In math, they might develop word problems based on counting legs, heads and tails of our farm animals.
In language arts, they might gather for centering yoga activities under the trees, or to write poems about key features on campus.
We know that children are happier when they develop a concrete relationship with the Earth and when they get to learn while moving their bodies.
