Evergreen Independent School Cobble Hill

Evergreen Independent School Cobble Hill Preschool - Grade 7 evergreenbc.net

Thirty-nine years ago, a group of parents in Cobble Hill were searching for an alternative learning environment for their children. Evergreen Independent School was established with an eye towards building community while providing a safe and supportive learning setting for students.

The parents and teachers of Evergreen Independent School are committed to a philosophy that develops the full potential of each child. Small class sizes, innovative teaching, and multi-grade classrooms enhance individual learning and create positive socialization across all grade levels. Evergreen has a structured learning environment where academic excellence is fostered.

At Evergreen we take a thematic approach to learning. At the beginning of each year staff identify 8 monthly themes with suggestions from our students, that will be integrated into various subjects, giving them context and meaning. Past themes have ranged from: Medieval times to Robotics, with countless other fun ones inbetween.

The school also boasts a robust food literacy program for students, as well as a fully gluten-free kitchen to accommodate special dietary needs for our students and guests. We are extremely proud of our beautiful garden space where students gain the skills needed to grow and harvest their very own vegetables.

Evergreen is home to the Cobble Hill Community Pavilion – a gorgeous timberframed, shared community space for the school, parents, and local residents. Students and staff enjoy the use of this covered space for sports, playtime and as an extension of the classroom for outdoor learning.

New to Evergreen this year is a four-day week for our students in Kindergarten to grade 4. We are also pleased to offer preschool programs for children 3-4 years old.
