The Atelier School of Creative Learning

Happy end of the school year and congratulations to our elementary and middle school students! Our last couple of weeks have been full of celebration. In our annual Spring Sharing, students performed songs in Spanish; played percussion instruments celebrating samba culture; read original scenes and monologues; showed mastery of ukulele; and displayed fiber artworks. Our Spirit Week themes were a hit—students seemed to especially enjoy Dress Like a Teacher Day. And we took advantage of some beautiful weather to take a full day trip to Stephens Lake Park. Have a wonderful summer, and we’ll see you soon!

We’re shouting a giant THANK YOU to our sponsors, donors, and all who attended our Trivia Night fundraiser! Together we raised just under $18,000- an incredible show of support for the joyful, inclusive education at the Atelier School!

Thank you for showing up, giving generously, and helping us continue the good work we do every day to educate the children of our community.

This week’s weather at our elementary and middle school was perfect for outdoor planting, time with reading buddies, and local creature spotting!

This week, the whole Atelier elementary & middle school community, along with a great number of parents and caregivers, headed to the Daniel Boone Regional Library to practice looking up and finding books for research projects and independent reading. We had a great time among the stacks and using a variety of resources available to us!

✨We’re grateful to welcome Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Nathan Brown as a Silver Sponsor for this year’s Trivia Night Fundraiser ✨

His support helps strengthen the kind of community-centered education we believe in, and we’re grateful to have him standing with us this year. Thank you, Nathan, for investing in local kids and the work happening at The Atelier School!

At the Primary school, our youngest students have been exploring light, shadow and projection. The teachers staged the room with various light sources, loose parts and translucent materials and invited the children to explore with flashlights to unlock some magic. Take a peek...

Hawthorn Bank is joining us as a third‑year Trivia Night sponsor, and we’re genuinely grateful for their community-centered work. Their consistent support makes a real difference for our continued mission of joyful, inclusive learning!
