As the sun rises at Mountain Sunrise Academy in Saratoga Springs, a new day of holistic learning begins for students.
That's the theme of the school, where they say they take education a step beyond traditional learning.
What Greer means is that the school keeps the health of the child as a whole in mind during their educational experience at the school.Going into the school, Greer showed FOX 13 News the"Peace Cottage," which is not used as a punishment or reward, rather is a space where students can regulate and recognize their emotions.
"There are times when they need emotional regulation," she explained."So they will come into this room and choose an area that will help them."There's the"Take a Break Tent," a trampoline, books, cuddly stuffed animals, and a sensory bin, which Greer says has a significant effect on a child.
