Project Learn School

Dear Project Learn friends, alumni, and alumni families,

For over fifty years, Project Learn School was a gem in our community. Children came to be nurtured for who they are. They made deep friendships, had fun, and learned to truly honor one another.

We are writing to share with you that our beloved school building is under contract to be sold, with the closing scheduled for November 28. We imagine that this may bring up a lot of feelings and memories - making art in the art room, playing in the yard, hours of town meeting to come to consensus on how to proceed with important school issues. Project Learn has been a place where so much love has been nurtured. We are particularly proud that we fostered an atmosphere where children learned to speak from their heart and to communicate respectfully.

We will be gathering one final time in the building as a Project Learn Community (alumni students, families, and former staff members) on Sunday, November 26 from 2pm-4pm. You are invited to take one last walk through the building and bring home any items that are not planned to move into storage. We will have a closing circle in the Community Room at 3pm.

*Please note: there is no running water, bathroom use, or heat in the building - so dress warmly.

As you know, the school did not open last year or in this current academic year. While we have been renting the building off and on, this has not generated enough income for PL to continue to maintain the building and cover our debts. We did not see any other option at this point other than putting the building on the market in hopes that the revenue generated from the sale will cover our outstanding financial obligations.

We hope you will be able to join us on Sunday.

In gratitude,
PLAC
