​TUITION

Organic Lunches

We offer a vegetarian, organic home-style lunch for our students.  The meals are home made healthy lunches including a variety of vegetables, whole grains, and a protein.  We believe in young children experiencing wholesome food as a community. Cooking is embedded into the curriculum with students participating in food prep on a regular basis.  Our students prepare their own lunch once a month in celebration of the various traditions and cultures represented in our school community.   Our students experience the process of cooking from start to finish.  We have a full community garden allowing us to plant vegetables, herbs, and berries for our meals, and a Molina for the children to experience grinding  corn and wheat.

A Day at Primavera

The following is an example of a typical day for the Multi-Age Class.  We organize our schedules in a manner which allows us to share and maximize use of our spaces.  When the Multi-Age class is in the Indoor Classroom the Toddler class is utilizing the Outdoor Classroom and visa-versa.  Because of our family-style environment with high teacher to student ratio and small classroom sizes, we are able to put classes together on many occasions.  During these times, it's a great opportunity for siblings and friends of different ages to play together and celebrate special moments in our home away from home.​

Social Emotional

We foster a family atmosphere, teaching our children how to communicate, play, and work with love.  Part of our curriculum is a comprehensive classroom  management program and a social-emotional curriculum.  The idea behind it is to assist children with learning the life skills needed to successfully manage life tasks such as problem solving, forming relationships, communicating effectively, being sensitive to others' needs and getting along with others.

How does Pick-up and Drop-off work?
​Our Director monitors morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up.  All parents enter/exit through the main gate.  Parents & guardians drop-off & pick-up their students in their designated class space and sign their little one in and out of school each day.  Parents can designate additional adults who are allowed to pick up your child.
