"Our image of the child is rich in potential, strong powerful and competent, and most of all, connected to adults and children."
-Loris Malaguzzi (founder of the Reggio Emilia Approach)

Imagine the possibilities
when your child is the guide.
Confidence, independence, and real world problem solving skills are just a few of the things your child will discover inside of themselves.
Inspire a sense of wonder.
Hobson isn't just a school. It is a community of children, families, and teachers who explore, discover, design and create together.
