Free Union families - don’t forget about our Open House this afternoon!

Bring a snack and find a shady spot on campus to spend time with friends and teachers. You can poke around your new classrooms, play around all our outdoor spaces, and bring your school supplies to lighten the first-day book bag.

We are so looking forward to seeing your bright faces and gathering together again to prepare for the school year ahead!

If you’re considering a school change for your child, we see you. 💛

Maybe your child isn’t thriving where they are.
Maybe you’re looking for something more aligned with your personal or family values —more autonomy for your child, community engagement and social responsibility, more outdoor time, a focus on the whole child.
Maybe your child is having a hard time making friends or is being left out.

**Starting over takes courage—but it can change everything.**

At Free Union, we’ve welcomed many students mid-journey.
We’ve watched “new kids” become confident leaders in an incredibly short time.
We’ve seen anxious arrivals transform into joyful learners.
We’ve witnessed whole families find their people.

If you’re thinking about making a change, we’d love to talk. Come tour our campus. Meet our teachers. See our students in action. Ask all your questions.

Your child deserves a place where they can thrive. That place might be here.

🌳Our classrooms are screen-free by design - an intentional choice that’s rooted in a foundation belief and real research that children learn best by doing. We’re not against screens - we’re just really pro-childhood.

👉Screen-free classrooms mean more opportunity for deep focus, immaginative play, and rich conversation. You can read the full post on our blog about why we hold this line and what students gain because of it.

Academic preparation matters, and how it’s done matters, too.

At Free Union, we’ve found that the deepest learning happens when children are engaged, curious, and known. If you want to know more about how we engage with curriculum and testing, you can view the articles on our blog for specifics. And always, reach out if you want to talk to someone about your childs specific needs and your family’s place at Free Union - we’d love to have you.
