About Community Farm School
A Reggio Emilia-Inspired, farm and nature-immersive school
|
Community Farm School is a licensed, farm and nature-based preschool and kindergarten, located at Clark Farm in Carlisle, Massachusetts.
With an endless respect for children at the forefront of our philosophy and pedagogy, we combine best practice from current research in constructivists models, the Reggio Emilia approach, Montessori, Waldorf, David Hawkins, Vivian Paley's storytelling and story acting, the project approach, and so many more. We believe educators are lifelong learners and we are dedicated to understanding and implementing best practice in all we do. Our school is driven by a commitment to creating a child-led and open-ended curriculum with teachers as co-discoverers and children as active protagonists in their own learning and experiences. |

By creating a warm, welcoming, and dynamic environment, empowering children as citizens and supporting a community of learners, we believe children's capabilities are endless.
With a whole-child, holistic approach to development we value and recognize children's unique selves. We are committed to working with children and families to know ourselves, the community, and the earth on a deeper level.
