Tree School is celebrating our second year in our new home! We have finally settled at 131 Spring Street in Portland's West End. In July 2008, Tree School adopted the building that many remember as Ballard House. We are so excited to be in such a beautiful space with an incredible energy. Please stop in and visit! Tree School is going to be growing many new branches and leaves this year. Thank you all for your unending support and encouragement!
Peace,
Lindy Shapiro, Director, Tree School
A final note...
Please understand that we will always offer at least some of our classes at no charge. Tree School is meant to provide as many children as possible with the opportunity to experience and understand new people and places. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to make the most of the opportunities Tree School has to offer!
