The place is cold, snowy, and quiet but still beautiful. We had a bit of an extended break, but we’ll see you next week! ❄️🌬

We’re on Winter Break! ❄️☃️
Yesterday was our last day before the break and it was really fun! We had a holiday party 🎉 put together by the newly formed Party Corp. (ugly holiday sweaters were suggested), we played some literal reindeer games 😆, had a wedding (the bride 👰🏻 and the wedding planner/officiant are pictured), fired our new kiln for the first bisque firing 🔥(nothing broke -yay!), and just had a generally awesome feeling of community on campus!

Happy Holidays and a wonderful New Year to all! 🎊☀️🌲 ⭐️

This is a photo essay of our first kiln firing! Send us good vibes this goes well. We’re all kind of learning as we go 🤞🍀 Apparently when you fire a kiln you need to have a little fire-watching creature so this little frog 🐸 🔥 volunteered as tribute to stay out of the kiln and sit watch. We’re very excited to see what comes out tomorrow 😊

It’s getting festive around here, AND the sun is casting interesting shadows and setting SO early! #selfdirectededucation #selfdirectedlearning

Sometimes people ask about organized sports at Fairhaven, or gym class, or worry their child will play video games all day. Most, if not all of these students LOVE video games AND they didn’t need an adult to tell them to go outside and do a fitness test. This was all because THEY wanted to. Young people are highly motivated to do the things they’re interested in. We just have to trust them. PS it didn’t even matter if they were doing it “right” 😊👍🏻
