Welcome to the Sour Flowers! Throughout our history, sour flowers have been a joyful part of our outdoor education. It is only fitting that our favorite flowers are now the heart of our school.
COMPLETE THE APPLICATION FOR ENROLLMENT
Our Classes – currently completely outdoors – are multi-age so, curious and self-propelled children thrive in this environment that fosters growth-mindset and community. Admission to the program is based on developmental readiness and not necessarily on chronological age.
Outdoors and play-based, our early education program meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10-1pm. We invite you to fill out the enrollment application, online.
Enrollment Steps
The program runs year-round.
-
- Submit Application and complete non-refundable application fee due.
- Tour TKG. Visit our outdoor school location and observe from a safe distance.
- Parent Meeting – The purpose of this meeting is for parents and school leaders to plant the seeds of relationship – this anchors school business, parent involvement, and conflict resolution.
- Student Visit – Students are also part of this process. By attending a school meeting, they can see how it feels and teachers can see how it feels too. We may contact a student’s current/former teacher for additional information and will notify you in advance if this is necessary.
