“The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind”
Actual cranes, from the Lincoln community.
Last spring, in a time of great strife, Bluestem encouraged the people of Lincoln to make 1,000 cranes. People of all ages came together (virtually) and we folded over 1,100 of paper squares into Japanese cranes.
We want to give those cranes, as well as hope for the future, back to our community. For every donor, from now until the end of the year, we will mail a crane along with a thank you note. Your gift will ensure that every child has an opportunity to attend the school through our generous financial aid program, learning materials can be purchased as each child digs deep into new areas of study, and retain excellent Montessori teachers who focus on student well being and growth.
Two Ways to Give:
1. Become a monthly sponsor (preferred)
2. Give a one time donation
Montessori schools are designed to foster creativity, independence, and ingenuity by providing a child-centric learning environment, hands-on activities, and integration with the community. At Bluestem, our students study government at the capitol, learn gardening in real gardens with community gardeners and study science with experts from the university.
Bluestem intentionally centers our Lincoln community and a commitment to the environment in order to teach children to love and protect their world. Children are taught to value peace, chase their passions, and make a difference in their world.
