Students build a strong foundation in both academics and real-world learning, engaging in standards-aligned academics including math, reading, writing, and science. Additional subjects such as social studies and history are naturally integrated into projects and hands-on experiences, allowing learning to feel connected and meaningful.

The 4-Day Elementary program is designed as a multi-family homeschool model, providing a full, comprehensive, well-rounded learning experience that supports families in meeting their child's educational needs through academics, enrichment, and community-based learning.

Monday – Thursday, 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM (Thursdays are Forest Day, held at a local forest)

4 day program - $285/week (ages 5-9)

School Age (Ages 5-14 years)

These skills are woven into experiential learning and project-based experiences, allowing children to learn through doing—whether in the garden, through building projects, storytelling, or while exploring the natural world. This program balances teacher-guided instruction with child-led exploration, while also intentionally incorporating social-emotional learning (SEL) to support emotional awareness, self-regulation, relationship-building, and confidence.

Through collaborative projects, daily responsibilities, and consistent rhythms, students develop independence, communication skills, and a sense of responsibility within their learning community. Forest Days provide immersive opportunities for deeper nature connection, 
hands-on learning, and continued skill development in a real-world setting.

For example, one student chose to start a jewelry business: she selected the type of  jewelry she wanted to design, conducted market research, wrote a business plan, created  branding and a logo, developed a budget, learned jewelry-making through research and mentorship, produced her products, and presented and sold her jewelry. Other student-led projects have included writing, illustrating, and publishing a joke book; designing and building a haunted house experience; creating a fully functional board game; and researching and preparing for a sugar glider.

These projects allow students to apply academics in real and meaningful ways—integrating  math, writing, research, critical thinking, and creativity into something they genuinely care about. With an emphasis on leadership, peer relationships, and confidence-building, students step into leadership roles, mentor younger peers, and take ownership within the learning community. Through collaboration, presentations, and shared experiences, students build communication skills, emotional intelligence, and the confidence to express ideas and lead meaningfully.

Weekly Forest Days and outdoor challenges—such as orienteering, nature-based problem-solving, 
and skill-building—further support independence, adaptability, and self-trust. The program 
culminates in Project Showcases, where students present their work, celebrate their growth, 
and demonstrate their creativity, skills, and contributions to the community.

The 4-Day Middle School program is a continuation of our multi-family homeschool model, providing a full, comprehensive, well-rounded learning experience that supports families in meeting their child's educational needs through advanced academics, enrichment, and real-world application. At the core of this program are student-driven, full-cycle projects that serve as the foundation of learning. Students engage in both individualized passion projects chosen by the student and ongoing group projects that typically span around six weeks. Each project is designed to move from idea to execution—planning, researching, creating, and presenting.

Two days per week gives your child twice the learning, twice the friendships, and 
twice the growth. This program blends hands-on homestead activities with guided forest 
exploration, fostering creativity, problem-solving, and real confidence.

With more time for in-depth projects and enrichment tied to weekly themes, students 
experience a well-rounded, nature-based education that encourages curiosity, resilience, 
and a lasting connection to the natural world.

and reflective time in a local forest. Through outdoor skill-building and life skills 
practice, students gain confidence and independence that can't happen in a classroom.

We believe childhood should be full of dirt-under-the-fingernails discoveries, laughter in the garden, and the joy of caring for animals.

At our Georgetown campus, learning happens in the heart of a working homestead. Children explore gardens, care for farm animals, and dive into hands-on projects that spark curiosity, resilience, and problem-solving. Every day brings opportunities to connect with nature, form lasting friendships, and build practical life skills.

From the mud kitchen and sensory play gardens to the goat pasture and chicken coop, this is a place where learning feels like play — and every season brings something new to explore.

GROWING ROOTS, BUILDING CONNECTIONS


The Homestead

- Cynthia Renee

This review has been long overdue since we've been taking our toddler to ROOTS ever since their very first session. My 2YO daughter absolutely loves the ROOTS program and it provides a much-needed gap of traditional school in my opinion. The program is truly unique and the owners Talon and Travis and their team are all amazing. Highly recommend!

- Jenn Marchetti

Our experience at ROOTS has been exceptional! The staff are truly invested in my children’s education and their growth as learners. Small class sizes and a creative out- of-the-box educational experience have enabled my children to thrive in an environment outside of a traditional classroom. While making friends, my children are also learning about nature, survival skills, animals, cooking, farming, independence, and so much more in a multisensory environment where they are encouraged to dig in and get dirty.

- Andrea Volk

My 5 year old daughter has taken yoga classes with Miss Brooke and Miss Talon at ROOTS. The yoga is SO much more than “just” yoga. Through the ROOTS yoga program my daughter has learned so many new tools for emotional regulation. She has learned lessons in helping her community, being true to herself, and spreading kindness wherever she goes. I cannot thank ROOTS enough, especially Miss Talon, for giving my child a safe space to make friends and connect with herself through breath and movement. The things she has learned at ROOTS will make a positive impact in her life for years to come.

Very inclusive environment, great team of staff. teaching children what they need, they think outside the box. recommend 1000%

- Lin Seed

I have been so impressed with the camp my child has attended the last two weeks. Everything has been absolutely incredible. Thank you for a truly special experience. I hope your business continues to flourish! Shout out to all the staff and the camp director Rhonda!

- Kathy Hen

Our son is almost 2 and has been going for the last few months, and we love it! He loves talking about what he did outside that day. He especially loves the bunnies. We love that it’s an outdoors program that allows him to be curious about the outside in a safe manner, while learning basic life skills appropriate for his age! 

- Christi June Chiu

We are overjoyed to have this program available to us and so close to our home! I was looking for nature based and practical educational opportunities for my children to participate and learn from and ROOTS hits the mark! They love going every week and come back so happy and say how much they enjoy ROOTS!

- Sarah Beth Lowe

Wonderful engaging program for all ages, my 8 year old loves his teacher and all the classes he has participated in so far! Everyone there has been friendly, encouraging and easy to communicate with!

- Holli Ward

My 7, 5, and 3 year old all attended the fall ROOTS session and it was an amazing experience for each one of them. The program adapts to all ages and the instructors are compassionate, knowledgeable, and kind. My three year old was hesitant at first but felt right at home after meeting our instructor Rhonda and all the kids looked forward to their class. They always came home with something special they made in class and many of the activities provided an extension of learning and activities we could do as a family at home. The program exceeded my expectations and allowed my kids to gain confidence with new experiences and learn skills that will benefit their futures.
