💙 HAPPY EARTH DAY 🌎

What a privilege and duty it is to watch children fall in love with the natural world and all that it holds. Our hope is that this foundational immersion in nature sticks with them and that they hold it close and protect it for the rest of their lives. Nature is their greatest teacher.

🌸 Curious how “learning” happens at Forest School?

🦋 Our students work on important life skills that they’ll take with them and use throughout their lives. We focus on helping each child build a strong foundation where they learn how to be a good friend, how to work with others, how to be confident in their abilities, and so much more.

🌳 Want to learn more? Come see us for our final preview day on May 3rd. There’s a link in our BIO to sign up!

We’re back with another…

🌳 Did you know all of our classes have a 1:6 ratio?! That means there are 6 students per teacher with no more than 12 students per class! By keeping class sizes on the smaller side, students are able to make deep connections with each other, their teachers, and the natural world 🦋

❔Did you know…Foothills Forest School is a registered 501(c)(3) organization?!

We have BIG plans for our school community, and we need your help in order for us to hit our goals and give these kiddos an amazing schoolhouse and a new shelter for the homeschool class.

OUR PLAN:
🏡 Renovate an existing structure on our property (pictured above) into a schoolhouse for all classes to use as a place to gather, learn, craft, and take shelter during severe weather. The schoolhouse will also be a “home base” for our NEW Forest Kindergarten class. The space will also be a wonderful spot to store craft materials, paperwork, etc. to keep it nice and dry 😉

🌳 Construct a lean-to structure in the forest for our homeschool class in order for them to have a proper camp spot with a place to store items, enjoy their lunches and snacks, and craft while being sheltered from the elements.

💵 THE COST: $10,000

🤝 HOW YOU CAN HELP:

👕 Purchase a T-Shirt (kiddo and adult sizes available), a decal, or a car magnet through our Go-Teez fundraiser

💲Donate to our fundraiser with a cash donation through Venmo

💙 SHARE this post on your page so we can reach as many folks as possible!
