Academic Enrichment for Missouri Homeschoolers

Columbia
Garden Gate School of Mid-Missouri
Gate Organization seeks to enrich the lives of mid-Missouri children, their families, and the community through Waldorf-inspired education. Garden Gate believes in honoring early childhood as a time to imitate and explore through experience; attending to the rhythms, cycles, and patterns of nature in all subjects; and awakening the child’s capacities to work joyfully with others. This education approaches each discipline in the humanities and the sciences artistically, supporting a child’s abilities to learn by engaging the body, heart, and mind. In using both age and individually appropriate experiences and materials, we hope to nurture intellectual flexibility and the constant love of learning.
