Introductory Meeting Notes

As for the "original" meeting notes: I apologize, that I only have 2 or 3 of the slips of paper...

In summary: We felt that we wanted school to be a place where "learning" was fun, and inspiring...that our children were taught not "what to learn" but "how to learn", we wanted enrichment in arts, music, foreign language, and kinesthetics (body movements)...We wanted ceremony and community, joy and civility! Emphasis on the natural world was highly important, and
using inquiry approaches to learning...If you have more from the first meeting to add, please do so....

Thanks,
Emily
