Our Ember Studio is intentionally designed to ignite wonder, responsibility, and independence in our youngest learners. Rooted in Montessori and Reggio Emilia principles, children engage in hands-on work that builds foundational literacy, numeracy, and motor skills while cultivating habits of focus, care, and confidence. The studio environment places a strong emphasis on outdoor play, exploration, and joyful learning—all while fostering intrinsic motivation and ownership from day one.

In our Ascend Squad, we help your Leader(s) apply the skills they've developed in previous Squads to real-world situations. We start by assessing their strengths and interests from their time in the Discover Squad, and then guide them in understanding how to use those skills in practical settings, such as internships, apprenticeships, and taking on larger roles and responsibilities on campus.
