Eastern Ridge School near McLean in Great Falls. Such a great little school where children spend the majority of their day outdoors in a play-based, nature-based, inquiry-based environment. The ratios are 1 teacher per 4 to 6 children. There are no work-sheets anywhere and parents are a part of the community and attend workday, social gatherings, and play dates. Its a great school for children but also for the families. Core program runs from 8:30-3.
