About Our Lower and Middle School Program
Lower School is Nature School’s private elementary school, offering K-7th grade, with plans in place to grow through 8th NC state standards are met in math and language arts while social studies and science follow a faith-based curriculum that progresses sequentially through all the science topics covered in elementary school. Our approach is rooted in daily nature immersion, capturing students’ inborn curiosity about the natural world to foster deep connections to God and nature. Our school utilizes Responsive Classroom and Conscious Discipline methods to support social emotional growth. Lower school grades have access to cabin classrooms, but classes do take place predominately outside.
