Samish Woods offers an educational environment where children are free to explore the natural world and where peaceful interactions and problem solving skills are modeled and taught. The arts are valued along with math, language and integrated units of study focusing on science and history. This assures every child a well rounded education. Each child receives individual attention balanced with small and whole group lessons. Children are supported to learn at their own pace and receive developmentally appropriate lessons. Our three classrooms are multi-age and based on a three year cycle. This provides stability and continuity for each child to thrive to their fullest. There are typically 20-24 children in each classroom with a lead teacher and an assistant. The school's campus has a natural playground with a year round creek and native trees.
We are a non-profit private school formed and operated by teachers as a teacher professional partnership. Samish Woods is a state certified private school with limited number of scholarships available.
