The goal of a Living Wisdom SchoolTM is to teach children the art of living, while imparting the knowledge provided by a “traditional” curriculum.
Recognizing that good grades, a good job, lots of money, and a nice home don’t necessarily lead to a fulfilling life, we strive to support the growing child to learn how to live harmoniously in this increasingly challenging world.
Ultimately, we are dedicated to helping children realize their potential as human beings and enjoying the journey along the way.
This is achieved through:
Small classes (5 – 12 children) in a safe, nurturing environment
Thematic, integrated, experiential learning
An individualized approach for each child
Emphasizing joy in learning
Creative expression in the arts
Academic excellence without stress- kids learn when they are motivated and ready!
Universal values such as harmony, kindness, compassion, respect
Practical spirituality, emphasizing inner peace and compassionate action
Balanced growth in body, feeling, mind, will and spirit
The value of this approach is reflected by the profound depth of how Living Wisdom SchoolTM students learn to live wisely, happily, and successfully, according to their own deep inner needs — rather than being conditioned to live up to our own expectations as parents and educators or “social” norms.
“Each of my friends from Living Wisdom School shares two major things in common: a strong sense of self and an interest in giving back to the world.” Gita McGilloway, Assoc. Director of Development, CARE International
