Our Educational Philosophy

The mission of Nature Field Creative Academy is to bring the joy back into learning.

We do this by providing a student led, nature-based learning environment. Students are encouraged to build a meaningful relationship with the outdoors by spending uninterrupted time outside each day.

We use the project approach to create individualized curriculum that caters to our students’ interests and we are inspired by Reggio Emilia, Montessori and Nature Schooling. We prioritize exploration and discovery in a non-competitive learning environment.

We foster a community of learners who are self-motivated critical thinkers who carry their love for learning well beyond their time at Nature Field.

We are committed to providing the best education possible for your child. Nature Field transitioned to mixed age classrooms during the 2024-25 school year. This thoughtful and research based change was made to enhance our students’ learning, social development, and overall school experience.
