Evergreen is a self-paced learning environment that is designed to foster responsibility, goal-setting, and teamwork. Evergreen students are empowered to thrive in a world that needs independent, motivated thinkers and learners.

We believe children learn best by doing. Whether it’s launching a startup business, creating a tide pool habitat, playing a musical instrument, painting a mosaic, or programming a robot, Evergreen students are building real-life skills in the classroom every day.

We believe the learning experience is much richer when the teacher (“Guide”) offers insightful questions and facilitates hands on learning. Guides use the Socratic method, always responding to students’ questions with new questions. This exchange hones students’ critical thinking skills.

We believe in the power of project-based learning and apprenticeships. Beginning in elementary, student create their own business each year. In middle school, our students will obtain summer internships in a field they are passionate about. Students have interned with doctors, entrepreneur bakers, plumbers, attorneys and graphic designers. What will your child choose?

We encourage our students to develop personal virtues such as honesty, hard work, responsibility, kindness and empathy. Armed with purpose and good character, we believe our students will launch into adulthood prepared to find their calling and change the world.

Nature is a powerful teacher. We believe in regular adventures and explorations outdoors both planned and play-based. We have an outdoor classroom and CHICKENS!
