I was a student of yours a few years ago. I want to thank you for the work that you do and for exposing me to such meaningful material...It encourages research and reflection I'm not sure I totally appreciated that at the time... So again I just want to thank you. I appreciated it. |

We recognize students as individuals with unique needs, interests, and learning styles. We adapt our homeschool curriculum to our students, rather than forcing students to adapt to the curriculum. We empower students to pursue their future goals in a way that enables them to prepare for college while building on their strengths and talents and staying true to who they are.
We nurture and protect the passion and enthusiasm for creating a better world that comes so naturally to many young people. We help our students lead authentic and meaningful lives, so they can leave school feeling confident in their ability to make an impact on the world. A wide variety of families and groups have found our values to be compatible with theirs, such as Buddhists, Unitarian Universalists, Waldorf schools, secular homeschoolers, families that have enjoyed Montessori schools, unschooling families, students living abroad, families with Indigo children, and families who are international travelers. We partner with homeschooling groups and people starting schools to provide curriculum, teacher support, consulting, learning styles profiles, and more. Please explore the wealth of information on our site about the Global Village School homeschooling program. The parent and faculty partnership draws from a huge educational tool bag, pulling out strategies that best meet the individual learning needs for each subject area, at each developmental level, and for each family context. |
This is easily one of the most insightful school courses I have ever taken. It was quite difficult at different points but it really provokes positive ideas and creative concepts. It gives a space and structure to formulate...thoughts that are often too difficult to put to words. It was a course in introspection among other things. Where would we be without a GVS curriculum? Swimming with the elephants in Thailand...we are the luckiest people on Earth....an awesome "field trip" for James. He learned to do a health check on an elephant. He now knows when an elephant is happy or in a bad mood, and when an elephant is sick. The world is the best school ever!!!
