Our "non-traditional" Kindergarten classroom is for students 5-6 year olds. Students have a magical introduction to structured learning, while still being able to set their own pace, have small teacher ratios, environment as their teacher all while honoring the state standards and setting them up for success for whatever school setting comes after. 

​

Curriculum Used; 

• Wild Learning Curriculum- Our specialized Forest School approach curriculum. They have a Writing, Math & Phonics curriculum that we are absolutely obsessed with. 

• Learning Without Tears Curriculum- Issaquah school district uses this for their writing, reading and phonics. We use this curriculum with Pre-K too, so it's scaffolds up nicely. 

• School District Standards - We use the local districts standards pages to guide our other units. The science goals are so special to learn so hands on in this outdoor setting.  

​

Students have access to; 

• Frequent field trips for hands on learning

• Spanish exposure, yoga enrichment classes and messy art spaces

• Animal Interactions 

• Library Structure 

​

If your student is coming from the park, or a further location, there are bus stops to support the commute in and out. One bus stop at Lakemont Community Park and one on Front Street in Downtown Issaquah. Feel free to inquire more if you're interested! ​
