Teaching Philosophy
Fern Hill takes a whole-child approach to learning that supports students’ academic, social, and emotional development. Attention to the whole child ensures children develop an intrinsic love of learning while also meeting the Standards Aligned System established by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.
Nurture in Nature
Outdoor learning allows children increased opportunity to think critically about the risks and benefits of their actions, to overcome adversities, and to build resilience in a physically and emotionally safe manner. Nurturing a relationship with the outdoors early in life grounds children in negotiating the environmental and social challenges we face as a society.

“An environment-based education movement — at all levels of education — will help students realize that school isn’t supposed to be a polite form of incarceration, but a portal to the wider world.”
— Richard Louv
