A nature-based, heart-centered microschool offering K-5 education for families in the Rogue Valley.
At Chicory School, we believe that learning should feel alive; rooted in the natural world and driven by innate curiosity. Our microschool offers a hands-on, heart-centered approach to K-5 education for children to thrive outside the traditional classroom environment. We cater to families seeking more than just worksheets, standardized tests, and sitting at a desk all day. Through our holistic, project-based approach, we blend nature-based education, gentle guidance, and authentic connection to help children grow into confident, capable, and compassionate humans.
Chicory School is a private microschool that offers a supportive educational environment for K-5 education. Our mixed-age community classroom caters to children from 5 to 10 years old, with class size ranging from 6 to 12 students and a 1:5 teacher to student ratio. Nestled on a private homestead property, we provide ample outdoor adventuring space alongside our cozy one-room schoolhouse.
At Chicory School, our core curriculum is inspired by the cyclical patterns of each season, integrating real-world, hands-on lessons that seamlessly cover all aspects of K-5 education. Each season's curriculum is thoughtfully designed, offering open-ended learning experiences that cater to all students and tailored to each child’s academic level.
Our projects are designed to challenge students, helping them learn new skills and wisdom rooted in traditional knowledge while engaging meaningfully with their environment and peers. Our core curriculum is paired with an individualized education program for every student, taking into account their strengths and family goals, all within our unique microschool setting.
