It’s more than education—
it’s a way of life
We walk together
The School of Quintessence community is more than an educational space—it’s a living, breathing community devoted to nurturing the full human being: head, heart, and hands. Rooted in a holistic view of development, we walk together on a path that honors rhythm, imagination, and the sacred unfolding of individuality.
“To truly know the world, look deeply within your own being; to truly know yourself, take real interest in the world.”
We are a community of
-
Parents and families
who value deep connection and conscious living.
-
Educators and mentors
who see teaching as both an art and a sacred responsibility.
-
Alumni and students
who carry the spirit of inquiry, creativity, and service into the world.
-
Supporters and partners
who nourish our vision with time, energy, and generosity.
What we believe

Education should awaken the whole human being—intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually.
Childhood is sacred
Childhood is a sacred, unfolding journey that should be honored with reverence and care.
transformation in community
Community life, guided by rhythm, mutual respect, and inner development, creates the fertile ground for true transformation.
These beliefs shape our daily rhythms, our seasonal festivals, our relationship to the arts and nature, and our commitment to inner work as a foundation for outer action.
Art and beauty are essential
Beauty, story, nature, and ritual are not extras—they are essential elements of learning.
