Description of Klahanie School Programming: AMS Accreditation candidate Early Childhood Education where we as a multiage class utilize and state mandated rotations between three-site classrooms (the garden one) as our prepared environments to care for, and explore our ever changing world. The Montessori and ABAR pedagogies are actively engaged in daily practices of Inclusion and Equity with exposure to Peacemaker monthly units, Mindfulness Social Emotional supports and healthy communication practices.

Reflections moving forward in commitment as a Montessori ABAR (Anti Bias Anti Racism) Multiage Early Education School:
Our Klahanie School daily practices will remain focused on building daily, as a collective group: Respect, Equity, Justice, Peace & Collaboration to Harmony and Love. This week we decided as a staff to begin a Gratitude Sharing when friends go beyond what is asked of them to help and support another in school and environment.
The ecosystem of kindness we create here at Klahanie School is our commitment to our daily fluency practice, one step at a precious time to showcase the kindness, explorations of the past, cultures locally, nationally and globally and ancestors, the thoughtfulness science of observations and movements to celebrate when a person sensory intakes and thinks about the larger group to share, to collaborate, to find joy and fun together into innovations and independent society co-created in the classroom and hopefully imprinted neurological pathway to utilize further down the learning road. We are our own lab for peace building one sensory, learning moment and movement at a time.
We as a school celebrate you all and the love you share with your children and the community we collectively tend together, and are here to shore up in times of angst or uncertainties. Our school commitment is to have consistency and presence of kindness, empathy, availability and warmth. The focus is on the now and on the youth of all age scope for consistent commitment to serve and support.
Dr. Maria Montessori quotes: Education is the best weapon for peace.
Everyone talks about peace but no one educates for peace. In this world, they educate for competition, and competition is the beginning of any war. When educating to cooperate and owe each other solidarity, that day we will be educating for peace.
The child who has felt a strong love for his surroundings and for all living creatures, who has discovered joy and enthusiasm in work, gives us reason to hope that humanity can develop in a new direction.
