Join Us September 2025!

Dream AcadeME fosters a love for learning with STEAM and project-based lessons in a play-based and natural environment. Children engage in whole group, small group, and one-on-one lessons in a personalized program. Children learn from each other and educators in a home-like setting.

 

Location

The location for the microschool in 2025 will be between two spaces, our Founder’s home and the Mile Away property (formerly a restaurant and event center). Both of these locations are within 3 miles from each other and fall along the Amherst/Milford line. Due to potential construction on the Mile Away site and working through other details with the town, we are asking for parents to be flexible with us between the two locations. Both locations offer 1.25-5 acres of land with an indoor and outdoor home-like space where children learn with a variety of materials inspired by Reggio Emilia.

Environment as a Teacher

“The environment we create will determine what prevails. In other words, what we nurture and encourage wins.” Jane Goodall
