“Children pursue life, and in doing so, pursue knowledge. They need adults to trust in the inevitability of this very natural process, and to offer what assistance they can.”
Earl Stevens
Our Philosophy
Cloud Nine Enrichment families believe that parents/guardians are capable of educating their children according to their individual needs and should be trusted to provide a high-quality, customized education for their children. Intelligence is often defined by performance in an examination or report card grades, but at Cloud Nine Enrichment we understand it goes beyond that. Way beyond.
Cloud 9: A Celebration of the 9 Different Ways of Knowing
Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences challenged our perception of intelligence. It goes beyond traditional measures, like being good at math and English, recognizing that intelligence is not fixed, but can be nurtured at any age. At Cloud Nine Enrichment, we embrace this encouraging concept as the foundation of our homeschool learning center.
Our curriculum celebrates the diversity of intelligence, encompassing nine distinct types. We believe in empowering children to develop and harness these intelligences, identifying their strengths and growth opportunities. By understanding their unique capabilities, children gain a deeper sense of self and their place in the world.
Our mission is to foster lifelong learners who find boundless joy in discovery. By providing children with this profound understanding of themselves, we cultivate a lasting love for learning that will accompany them throughout their lives. At Cloud Nine Enrichment, we believe that intelligence is not a fixed trait, but a multifaceted journey of continuous growth and exploration.
