A Message from the Director:

Hello families,  


We had an amazing showing of families this week celebrating our students’ learning at our Learning Showcases.  Thank you to all who were able to come and celebrate with us.  We are so proud of all of the work the students have been doing here at school and the fun we have been having learning together.  Thank you also for not only supporting our students but for supporting our staff.  

As we wrap up our trimester and say goodbye to another fabulous Ski and Ride program we hope you will join us at our Winter Celebration at Schweitzer at the Red Barn.  This is an annual event where our families build cardboard toboggans and race them down the hill.  It is not to be missed.  As we look to spring, we are excited about our new courses that start on Monday, March 18th. Horticulture classes will start again and we will be planning and working in the gardens.  We also have music, writing, pottery, Geology, physical fitness, art, baking and our Spring Play to look forward to.  For the first time ever, we will be having a spirit week March 18-22nd.  Wear your spirit gear and celebrate our mascot, the Snowshoe Hare.  Extra points for crazy hair!  

If you want to become a part of our program, we will be having a new family orientation on April 26th at 10 a.m.  Please join us to learn more about the Homeschool Academy Program.  Thanks and see you soon!  


Sincerely,

Alissa McGonigal, M.Ed.
