Roots is putting down Roots!
Brad has purchased a home and land in the town of Corinth, VT, and it is here that Roots will be relocating. The land has over a half a mile of river frontage and several streams, a beautiful varied forest, rambling topography, and plenty of wildlife. We have no doubt that it will make an epic location for the Roots School.

Programs for Children
Exploring the wilds, learning to create with your hands, building trust and confidence in yourself, and having fun are all critical parts of childhood. Our children's programs strive to reach out to students as individuals to help them take responsibility for their own learning and behaviors. We work with children ages 6 and up, with all level of experience with these skills and understandings, and because of this we have learned to match the challenges we provide with the students who are with us.
Programs for Adolescents
The transition between child and adult is a time of explosive growth, learning, and challenge. The studies of survival, tracking, the natural world, and advanced primitive skills create a real crucible for forging who we will be in our future. The natural world sets the rules, and we have to learn to listen, to take accountability, and to preserver, or else we feel the consequences. This is a core lesson of our programs for teenagers, if you want to be skilled, capable, and self reliant, you have to accept and work with the the realities of the world in which we live.
