The Carriers of Our Vision
We are the Carriers of the Garden Vision
We create opportunities for our students to discover who they are, while calling out the personal gifts that so beautifully exist inside of them. We believe the secret to inspired learning is to get our students as excited as possible, as early as possible. We have created a culture of honor and grace, a culture of extravagant joy where our students blossom in their confidence, knowledge and self- expression. At Garden we are ambassadors of ingenuity, masters of flexibility, unchanged by negativity and transformed by possibility. Garden is committed to changing the world one happy and empowered student at a time.
Our Garden roots run deep
Some of us have seen our own children grow in this Garden Vision and graduate college with honors, while others have a daughter or granddaughter currently enrolled in our school. Many of us have been associated with Garden for over 20 years, while another is a Garden Alumni, starting her first year as the director. Our Garden roots run deep because of the way we care for one another and value our relationships. The posture of our hearts for our community is love, and who does not want to be connected to love!
We are educational warriors
We are a global teaching community. We come from all regions of the United States; from the East Coast to the West, as well as the countries of Iran, Guatemala, and Argentina; but do not discount our homegrown talent that grew up in Santa Monica and wear their sunshine proudly on their sleeves. We want our Garden Families to trust the quality of our education and we accomplish this by giving you our best. As educators, we continue to generate a fresh Vision that works, that we are proud of, that we fearlessly implement. We are educational warriors, protecting the identity of the whole child.
