“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

2026–2027 Class Schedule

Forest Program runs in 6-week sessions throughout the school year. Families choose a Monday Crew, a Thursday Crew, or both, meeting once per week per crew for six class days per session.

Pick-Up Time

We encourage families to stay for about 15 minutes after pick-up to chat with the other families and get to know everyone better.

During this time, the guides will step away for a debriefing on how our day went and begin closing down for the day, so parents are responsible for supervising their children.

We also encourage parents to keep conversations appropriate for children, so they’re welcome to join in!
