🐛🦋continuing our pollinator series, our Denali lead teacher, Ms. Courtney, brought in gulf fritillary caterpillar for her class to explore! They feed exclusively on passionflower vines! They look prickly but are totally harmless and will eventually become a bright orange butterfly!

🍃 Now Enrolling | Final Openings Available 🍃
Find your favorite people! Every child deserves an education that’s built around them. At Over Yonder Nature School, we’ve developed The Rooted Child Project (TRCP), our research-based curriculum that combines purposeful play, hands-on learning, and intentional teacher observations to create individualized learning experiences for every child. Rather than expecting children to fit into a curriculum, TRCP meets children where they are, nurturing academic growth while building confidence, independence, problem-solving skills, and emotional resilience.
With low teacher-to-child ratios, experienced long-term teachers, room to roam, and a joyful school community, every child is truly TRULY known and supported as they grow.
We have just 6 openings remaining for the upcoming school year! If you’re looking for more than childcare, you’re looking for a school where your child can flourish while having access to 2.5 acres of free play nature and a catered organic food program, we’d love to meet your family.
🌿 Schedule a tour (link in bio) and discover what makes The Rooted Child Project different.
