The Program

Rooted in a deep respect for young people and families, much of the program is shaped by the collective.

What

A self-directed education (SDE) center and use tools, structures and philosophies from Agile Learning Centers.
Children have the freedom to pursue whatever activities, play, interests and learning they want to pursue.
We are a registered 501(c)3.
Since we are not a school, children must be homeschooling through a charter school or through a PSA (Private School affidavit). We can help you through this process (it's easy).

When

Who

For children between the ages of 5-14.
We center BIPOC voices and experiences.
We celebrate gender diversity.
We endeavor to be an inclusive space and are building our capacity to serve a wider spectrum of neurodiverse needs.

Where

Our plan is to be based at Arroyo Viejo Recreation Center in Oakland (subject to change).

Cost

We try to live the spirit of the gift economy. We’re a village that is collectively taking care of our children!
No family will be turned away for lack of funds.
To cover costs, we have a sliding-scale tuition:
- $0-$2000 per month per child (payment due by the Friday of the first week of each month)
- Families agree to contribute generously and equitably based on their family income and situation.
For more information about our sliding scale and financial contribution expectations, check out our breakdown here.
