Pathfinders Academy

Pathfinders Academy is nestled just off the main intersection in north Sammamish, serving learners aged 5-12. Our campus is hosted by Regeneration Church—a vibrant weekend congregation whose halls lie quiet and available during the week, giving us the perfect backdrop for exploration. The building offers multiple versatile classrooms, a sprawling grass field, a playground structure, and nearby walking trails waiting to spark curiosity.

Curiosity and independence lie at the heart of everything we do. Learners embark on their own Hero’s Journey, guided by Socratic discussions, hands-on Quests, and enrichment experiences spanning gardening, art, entrepreneurship, and science projects. Each day, students uncover their unique gifts, build real-world skills, and gain the confidence to tackle complex challenges.

Over the past two years, our Spark Studio has cultivated early learners—five to eight years old—in a playful, inquiry-driven environment. This fall, we’re thrilled to launch our Explorer Studio for eight- to twelve-year-olds, where students will delve deeper into collaborative design challenges, meaningful service projects, and self-directed goal setting.

While this may not be our forever home, we’re energized to begin our journey here alongside Regeneration Church. Together, we’re creating a vibrant learning community where young people learn to think critically, connect academics with the natural world, and develop a lifelong love of learning.
