Closing of The Lotus School
The Lotus School began as an idea of a sustainable community to follow the closing of Tinicum Art and Science in 2016. We continued the tradition of combining mindfulness with academics in a community setting. Over the years mindfulness has spread as a method of empowering all of us to be more compassionate with our selves and others, and in giving us the tools we need to be our best selves. As pioneers of this work, we are pleased to see more and more schools embracing this work and hope that it will continue to grow.
In the current moment, the Covid 19 pandemic has made the work of small independent schools everywhere extremely difficult, and The Lotus School is no exception. Unfortunately the time has come to close our doors, and as of December 31st all students will be graduated or transferred, and we will be no more.
We want to thank all of you who have helped in our mission over the years, and have supported our faculty with funds, good cheer and hard work. You all know who you are.
Sincerely,
The Leadership Team and Trustees of The Lotus School
