- Manzanita School's philosophy of progressive education focuses on real-life projects of interest to the students. Staff believe that school is 'not preparation for life, but is life itself" (John Dewey, progressive educator).
- The curriculum is individualized and developed based on each child's abilities, following the Reggio Emilia approach of emergent curriculum.
- Art, music, movement, science, and social studies are incorporated daily.
- Children learn to take responsibility and make decisions as they choose what and how to learn.
- Local relationships allow children to learn from experts and contribute to the community.
