A New Kind of

School

The Field School of Hvar is a community of parents, children, and educators reimagining education to serve our world. Our goal is to equip young people with the skills and grounding to lead lives of purpose - enriching the landscape and culture of Hvar in the process. Our pedagogy is grounded in experiential, individualized education and place-based learning. Our neighborhood of families share a commitment to free play and minimal screens. The first class will begin in September of 2026.
