Enrolling Final Openings for the 2025-2026 School Year - Don't Wait!
At Thriving Roots, we blend these powerful methods into one seamless experience.
Each approach brings a vital piece to the puzzle, and together, they form our Pedagogy Trio™ Experience: a curriculum built to support the Whole Child, at every stage of growth.
In our Montessori-inspired spaces, teachers act as guides, presenting one focus lesson each day. Afterward, students follow their Daily Rhythm and choose their own work, fostering focus, independence, and purpose. Mixed-age groups begin in our Early Elementary (ages 3–5) and continue in Upper Early Elementary (ages 5–7).
Our Waldorf influence shines through our Specialty Classes: daily offerings like music, art, movement, culinary arts, and gardening. Children also practice mindfulness through yoga, breathwork, and listening to their bodies. We prioritize rhythm and seasonal living to foster grounded, joyful learners.
Our Reggio inspiration comes alive through exploration and documentation. As children grow, they engage in deeper collaboration and long-term projects, particularly in our older classes. Teachers document learning moments daily in the Playground app & portfolios, helping children reflect and families stay connected.
Our curriculum builds foundational skills in literacy, numeracy, science, geography, history, social studies, life skills, sensory, art, music, theater, dramatic play, culinary arts, environmental awareness movement, yoga, cultural studies, botany, zoology, emotional awareness, and critical thinking through
hands-on materials, problem solving, communication, and purposeful play.
Observations > Outcomes
We use Montessori-style observation binders, Reggio-inspired portfolios, and regular teacher reflections to track each child’s developmental journey. Families receive updates, photos, and personalized feedback that reflect real growth in real time, not just academic checklists, through our parent app, Playground, and in-person showcases throughout the school year.
A holistic approach to early education rooted in independence, creativity, and collaboration.
