Program Overview

Evergreen Learning Pod offers three flexible learning models for students in grades 3–8. Each model supports both academic growth and creative exploration, with a balance of structure, student voice, and real-world learning.

All programs include small group instruction in reading, writing, and math, with integrated science and social studies aligned to Oregon State Standards.

Core

A morning-only option focused on foundational skills. Students receive instruction in reading, writing, math, and integrated science and social studies. It’s a calm, supportive setting that helps students build strong academic habits and confidence—ideal for families who want structured mornings with flexible afternoons.

📘 Engaging reading, writing, and math instruction
🌍 Science and social studies integration
📅 Tuesday–Friday, 9:00–11:30 AM

Core + Project

Includes everything in the Core program, plus an additional hour of student-driven, project-based learning. Each student takes a deeper dive into a personal interest connected to the quarterly theme and creates a creative response to demonstrate their learning, such as a performance, model, exhibit, or written piece.

🎨 Project-based learning tied to real-world themes
🧠 Creative responses rooted in student interest
📅 Tuesday–Friday, 9:00 AM–12:45 PM

All-Day Enrichment

Our most immersive option. Students participate in Core instruction, midday projects, and a long-term Impact Project each quarter. These projects go a step further by addressing a real-world problem through action or advocacy. Students research the issue, propose solutions, and take meaningful steps to create positive change.
