About the Program: 
The Mulberry Tree is Nature-inspired and Music-infused. We believe that children develop competence and wonder through exploration of natural materials as opposed to plastic or technology. Children at The Mulberry Tree experience Science, Art, Gardening, Tinkering, and Imaginative Play in a wholesome, Ecologically Aware environment. We include Music and Movement every day. Our school is driven by current research and standards of best practice. Director and Lead Teacher, Jeanne deMarrais, is a decades-experienced teacher and has a Master Teacher Permit for Early Childhood.
