NVS Weekly Enrichment

Calling all homeschoolers (+ students from nearby schools)!

Come experience learning inspired by the NVS educational philosophy: rooted in creativity, connection, and nature!

This program is open to students in Grades K-6. Whether you're a homeschool family or have routine days off from your current school schedule, this is a wonderful opportunity for your child to grow, create, and connect in a dynamic and supportive learning environment.

Each session is designed to offer a well-rounded day that nurtures both the body and imagination. 

Participants are also invited to take part in school-wide celebrations and showcases, including our Winter Talent Show, Spring Student Market, End-of-Year Art Show, and the Annual School Play, building a strong sense of belonging and community.

  • "My son isn't a sit-at-a-desk kid. This program actually gets that! Here, he's moving, creating, inventing and growing. He asks to go every single week."

    —Parent (Friday Program)

  • "We've been looking for something like this for years! I love that my kids are outside every day doing real things with their friends. It's not just enrichment, it's the kind of childhood we want them to have."

    —Parent (3-Day Program)

  • “My child struggles socially in traditional settings so we've been looking for something that might actually work for him. The structure, the time spent outdoors, and all his new friends have made this experience feel natural instead of forced. He excels here.”

    —Parent (Friday Program)

  • "This community is everything. The closing circle, the gratitude practice, the stories my daughter comes home with, the mom friends I've made... this is exactly what our family was looking for."

    -Parent (3-Day Program)

  • "Theater is my favorite because you get to be loud and weird and nobody cares. We also do gardening and I didn't think I would like it but I actually do."

    -Enrichment Student (Age 8)

  • "I like that it's not like regular school. We do music and art and actually go outside to do stuff instead of just talking about it. It's really fun."

    Enrichment Student, Age 9

  • "The closing circle is kind of my favorite part even though it sounds boring. Everyone says something good about their day. It makes you actually think about it."
