Welcome to Free Union

Inspiring a passion for learning, Free Union Country School supports and nurtures children in preschool through fifth grade. Bolstered by a caring, dedicated, and highly qualified faculty who emphasize developing the whole child, students thrive both socially and academically. Our curriculum and methods are research based and progressive, providing hands-on, engaging lessons and activities that encourage children to ask questions and construct knowledge. The best education is one that is flexible and tailored to the individual.

In a culture where free time and outdoor time may be limited, Free Union seeks to provide children with opportunities to have both. We believe that children need time outside with friends every day to play, to invent, to use their imaginations, and to solve problems. These skills, coupled with strong academics, provide an essential foundation for success in school and life beyond our idyllic log cabin walls.

Free Union Country School is committed to promoting and supporting an educational community that values and celebrates the way in which people and families are different and the same.  As a community, Free Union is about:

  • fostering awareness
  • embracing difference, and
  • nurturing unity.

The School admits students of any race, color, religion, and national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students, and does not discriminate in the administration of staffing, admissions, tuition assistance, educational policies, or other school-provided offerings.
