[quote=Anonymous]Our child has been at School for Friends for a year now. We love it. In general, I would say the curriculum is play based. There are Quaker elements like they call the children "friends" and they have a focus on peaceful conflict resolution. By peaceful conflict resolution, I mean, for example, that if two children both want the same toy, the teachers do not dictate who gets it, but they facilitate having the children work it out (the child who wants the toy asks the child with the toy "How many minutes [until you are finished with the toy]?" and the child with the toy will say "X minutes" and then play for a while and hand the toy over). As for enrollment, the school starts taking children at 2. The youngest class is currently filled, so enrollment would be based on whether or not someone in the class leaves the school. It happened last year when a child moved abroad, but I'm not sure it happens every year. [/quote]
