About 

Honey Hill School was established in 2020 after its creator left her previous classroom with the goal in mind to partner with families to raise resilient and strong learners in her own home. Honey Hill School provides a homey atmosphere and small group sizes to children as they grow into lifelong contributors to their communities. They do this through play, art, gardening, investigations and strong bonds with one another.

Cooper,
The Boss

Cooper inspires children to be gentle, compassionate and confident in how they communicate with other living beings. He has been Lindsey's best friend since 2009.  

When he is not sneaking kisses from toddler fingers or toes, he can be found napping in the sunshine on the couch, or he can be heard attacking his toys upstairs. Recently he has taken to laying directly on top of our growing carrots nd strawberry plants in the children's garden...
