Four kinds of time

What each part of the week is for

  • Studios

    Humanities, math and science in the morning, in groups of about ten. A teacher is at every table.

  • Choice

    Afternoons for art, music, making and quiet reading. Students sign up on Monday for the week.

  • The meeting

    Wednesday afternoon, one ring, one agenda. It decides what the school tries, changes or stops.

  • Friday outing

    A trail, a library, a farm or the shop. The meeting picks the places and students plan the days.
