We work for a world where every child is a creative maker and world changer, empowered to direct their own learning and see their vision become reality.
Our ALC
Wildly Inclusive ALC is a part-time, alternative education Agile Learning Center located at the Old Murphey School. We operate Monday-Friday, 9 am-1 pm, with 1 to 5 day options. Parents and children alike help create and maintain our learning spaces. For families who do not have the ability to volunteer monthly, there is an option to opt out of participation with higher tuition.
Our mission is to create an inclusive, affirming, and supportive educational environment for self-directed learners of all ages, abilities, and neurotypes.
Our Learning Philosophy
Children (and all people) have innate desires and capacities for learning and will do so effectively and efficiently by choice when provided with opportunities, resources, and friends to collaborate with.
​Learning follows different trajectories & schedules for different kids & that is okay. We trust that all will learn what they need to become capable adults & life-long learners who will excel in their chosen paths.
Adults can facilitate kids’ learning by offering opportunities, resources, and information to support their emergent interests. Direction or coercion from adults is neither necessary nor beneficial.
Learning is most effective when it is relevant to children’s everyday lives.
Youth will flourish when they are trusted, respected, and given agency over their learning conditions.
People learn as much from their environment and culture as from the content they are taught.
