The Hundred Languages of Children

No way. The hundred is there.

The child

is made of one hundred.

The child has

a hundred languages

a hundred hands

a hundred thoughts

a hundred ways of thinking

of playing, of speaking.

A hundred always a hundred

ways of listening

of marveling, of loving

a hundred joys

for singing and understanding

a hundred worlds

to discover

a hundred worlds

to invent

a hundred worlds

to dream.

The child has

a hundred languages

(and a hundred hundred hundred more)

but they steal ninety-nine.

The school and the culture

separate the head from the body.

They tell the child:

to think without hands

to do without head

to listen and not to speak

to understand without joy

to love and to marvel

only at Easter and at Christmas.

They tell the child:

to discover the world already there

and of the hundred

they steal ninety-nine.

They tell the child:

that work and play

reality and fantasy

science and imagination

sky and earth

reason and dream

are things

that do not belong together.

And thus they tell the child

that the hundred is not there.

The child says:

No way. The hundred is there.

Our Story

Fulton Community School & Farm truly embodies the concept of community.


In October 2017 Mark West Community Preschool was lost in the Tubbs fire. Through the devastation we were compelled to continue and restore that special place for the children. Over 2 years later the passion continues. Although we could not rebuild at our original location, the community came together, and a solution was found; 

Fulton Community School & Farm.


Fulton Community School & Farm the first preschool of its kind in Sonoma County. From its inception the model brought together private industry, nonprofit organizations, public agencies, local government and community members at large. All have made financial contributions and provided community support and visibility that made this school possible. To create truly supportive high-quality early childhood education programs this model is the path to the future in our community.

Please come and see what a community can do for our children when we really care.
