About Us:

School Around us is a 501C(3) Co-Learning community founded in 1970, serving students ages 5 to 14, with the aim of embodying the philosophy of holistic & environmental education.  We believe that as learners we develop meaning, identity, and purpose through self-discovery, relationships, a lifelong connection to the environment and accountability to our community.

The Hustle for Holistic Education will be an opportunity for the school community, extended family and friends and the surrounding community to come together to support lifelong learning, a love for the outdoors and holistic education.  We anticipate upwards of 100 participants to support our mission.

Note that the Family Rate of $60 will be applied at checkout (for families registering 3-8 people).
