Building and Grounds

The school's building and grounds are conveniently located in the city of Bozeman and are situated on three acres of land. The main school building includes three beautiful, spacious classrooms, a library, three administrative offices, a conference room, a staff room and a music room. Additionally, we have a large gymnasium for Health Enhancement during the colder months and the after school program. In June of 2007, the school purchased the classroom building and grounds from the original owners. In the summer of 2009, the school doubled in size when the addition to the school building was completed, adding the third classroom, more office space, a library, a music room and a staff room.

Natural Playground/Outdoor Classroom

In an effort to create a space for our students to have a wonderful place to go outside to play and learn, the Natural Playground/Outdoor Classroom (NPOC) was completed in the fall of 2009. It features: an amphitheatre with rock seating, a stream and small pond from which to study, a large sand area, a cave, a willow tunnel, an in-ground slide, a rock scramble, a climbing wall, a dug-in fort atop a hill, trees and shrubs, a walking/running path and more. It was even featured in this local news story: Interacting with a natural environment contributes to the overall physical, cognitive, and emotional development of children, helps them score higher on tests for concentration and self-discipline, helps them experience more diverse play, and helps them exhibit less aggressive behavior, strive toward advanced motor fitness, and become healthier. The second phase of the NPOC plans to incorporate garden beds (to pair with our extensive biology curriculum), a labyrinth, a teepee, a fire pit and more!
