Our approach to progressive education provides a balanced experience for students, who come away with deep understandings of academic concepts, as well as the spark and joy necessary for lifelong learning. Immersive thematic units encompass and intertwine academic areas into meaningful contexts and projects that allow students both the opportunity to develop academic skills and to apply them in ways important to them.
Children develop values and attitudes about learning based on their earliest school experiences. Mulberry School is filled with exploration, discovery, and joy. By infusing project-based learning and a global-minded approach to education, Mulberry provides students with the foundation necessary to become engaged citizens of the 21st century.
