Our Philosophy
Inclusion
Learn how all student gifts, and a diverse community of partners, contributes to the heart and soul of Shady Lane.
Diverse Methods
See why great teaching blends strong parent-school partnerships, with the patient art of listening and watching for a child's cues and inspiration.
The Arts
Witness what happens when an arts-centered vision of the child combines with an atmosphere redolent with abundant joy and laughter.
Mutual Learning
Observe what happens when children get the support and teaching to evolve from me, to a larger sense of we - and the growth and learning that follows.
Support Us
We rely on a variety of revenue sources to fund our programs. Individual Giving is a crucial part of this mix. Please consider donating to support Shady Lane's ongoing work.
