Learning Happens Everywhere at New Garden Friends School

At NGFS, they cherish the wonder and curiosity of childhood. They believe children deserve to spend their days in a learning community where they are known and respected, not for who they may become, but for the people they are today. 

When students are given opportunities to walk in the woods, cultivate plants on a farm, jump in leaves, canoe down rivers, and sleep in tents, they understand, from an early age, that learning happens everywhere, Exploring the natural world is a critical part of an NGFS education and not only because it enhances academic work. There are inherent challenges outdoors and it is not always predictable; these experiences build resiliency, adaptability, collaborative skills, and memories.
