TKG
THE KNOWING GARDEN is a community Elementary school in the South Bay. Currently located at St.Andrew's Church in Redondo Beach, our school recognizes humans as natural learners and respects students' rights to collaboration, choice and play. We believe that a project-rich curriculum facilitated by hands-on learning and real-life experiences will prepare our students to be critical thinkers who become lifelong learners and active contributors to the global community. With credentialed teachers, parent participation and low-ratios, our learning plans emerge in partnership with students and families. Our students and family form a community that values respect, mindfulness, critical thinking, confidence and concern for the Earth.
THE KNOWING GARDEN is a not-for-profit school with a public purpose. A 501(c)3 Organization.
