FIND YOUR HERO'S JOURNEY

From the minute a child is born, each little moment of ‘awe’ awards the child an opportunity to learn more about his/her self and place in our world–a true sense of self. It is a time during which learning is unlocked through play, natural curiosity, and an eagerness to know more. When children are given the right amount of freedom and tools to make their own choices, the learning becomes intrinsic and their path becomes even the more clear. 

more about us

Childhood is a momentary time for a world of possibilities.

Make sure you can answer (emphatically!) yes to the following questions:

Do you long for an environment where your child can be self-directed, learn to critically think, and is part of a community of learners that believe they have a calling that will change the world?
Do you believe that the traditional approach to education is stifling and teaches ‘direction taking’ vs. learning to do?
Are you able to let your child fail on the way to success without intervening, but providing support?
Do you believe that mastery of learning is more important than grades on a report card?
Do you believe that real-world, hands-on experiences (Quests) are an integral part of your child’s learning process?
Do you love the idea of your child spending a lot of time outside?
Do you love the idea of no homework, ever?
