Nurturing Our Youngest Learners: The Double Rainbow Experience

When an unusually high number of students under age three joined Seven Hills, our Early Childhood Education (ECE) teams responded with agility and purpose.
To give these youngest learners—who spend two years in the Rainbow (preschool) classroom due to their birth month—a deeply supportive entry into their Seven Hills journey, we established a dedicated "Double Rainbow" cohort in a thoughtfully remodeled classroom space, supported by their own teaching team.
The Double Rainbow program offered a daily schedule and pace designed specifically for younger capacities while remaining fully integrated into the broader Early Childhood community. Children moved fluidly between focused small-group learning and mixed-age outdoor exploration, alongside signature experiences like Studio, Eco-Literacy, Library, Buddies, and school-wide assemblies with older Rainbow and Red Barn (Pre-K) peers.

This tailored approach allowed our educators to meet critical developmental needs without compromise, fostering early confidence, curiosity, and independence on the ECE yard.
​While created as a responsive initiative, this innovative model proved to be a resounding success—and now stands as a tested blueprint Seven Hills can reactivate whenever future enrollment calls for it. It highlights the heart of a Seven Hills education: the flexibility and commitment to continuously adapt our curriculum to serve the needs of the children in front of us.
