What is Evergreen Education?
Evergreen Education is an elementary, private school located in Peterborough, Ontario that strives to provide a safe and fun learning environment that all children feel excited to attend. Evergreen is a “greenhouse” where children can grow deep roots in their strengths and passions, and build resiliency for their areas of growth. We will partner with students to teach them the academic, social, emotional and life skills in order for them to withstand challenges while living a life they are uniquely created for. Evergreen will partner with families to build a bridge between their child/children’s education at school and at home.
“At Evergreen Education, children will build resiliency and gain confidence by taking control of their own learning pace and mastering skills. We empower students to set and achieve their goals for each day, fostering independence. Our learning environment is community-driven, both within our four walls and our surrounding area. We believe that students' lives are enriched by doing life closely with others. At Evergreen, we prioritize student wellness and ensure they are equipped for life’s challenges and adventures.”
