Cottonwood is committed to radically shifting the way we think about learning, education and what it means to be in community. We empower youth and fuel the fire of curiosity in all people. We support a growing community through age-mixing, valuing personal choice and celebrating the individuality of everyone’s learning journey.
Cottonwood cultivates scholarship, interdependence, curiosity and self-knowledge through a progressive curriculum that playfully engages each learner in their school community as well as the larger community around them. In short, Cottonwood creates citizens of the world.
Our greater mission to build community is realized through offerings of an agile after school program, adult and organizational programming, community center events, mission related space rental and summer and vacation camps.
Cottonwood does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, disability, national origin, or ethnic origin in administration, admission, or any associated activities.
