Provider Spotlight

Discover the Best of Both Worlds at Wellheart’s Hybrid Program!

Are you looking for an education option that provides flexibility without sacrificing connection, enriching experiences, or academic excellence?

At Wellheart Chartered Public School, our unique Hybrid Program is thoughtfully designed to give families the freedom they value while offering students meaningful opportunities to learn, grow, and belong within a vibrant school community.  Wellheart serves grades K-8 and is tuition-free!!!

The Hybrid Program

Our Hybrid option allows students to attend campus three days each week, where they engage in rich, hands-on, project-based learning alongside their peers. Our Reggio Emilia-inspired approach encourages curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving while building strong academic foundations in literacy, mathematics, science, and social studies.

Beyond the classroom, students enjoy a wide variety of enriching experiences, including:

  • Daily outdoor education and nature-based learning
  • Art, music, theater, STEM, and cooking
  • Place-based learning experiences that connect students to their local community
  • Monthly educational programs at the Beaver Brook Association in Hollis, where students explore forests, wetlands, wildlife habitats, ecology, and environmental stewardship through immersive outdoor learning experiences

Our hybrid families also receive thoughtfully planned learning materials and ongoing teacher support, creating a seamless partnership between home and school.

What truly sets Wellheart apart is our community. We intentionally cultivate a warm, wholesome, kind, and nurturing environment where every child is known, valued, and encouraged to grow—not only as a learner, but as a compassionate, confident human being.

If you’re looking for the flexibility of place-based learning, combined with the support, friendships, enrichment, and joyful learning experiences of a school community, Wellheart offers the best of both worlds.  

Families are our partners in education

We believe learning is most meaningful when educators and families work hand in hand. Through open communication, mutual trust, and a shared commitment to the whole child, we create a supportive community where every student is known, valued, and inspired to reach their fullest potential.  We invite you to learn more and discover why so many families are choosing Wellheart’s Hybrid Program for the upcoming school year!
