Place-Based Education
An inclusive, collaborative learning environment allows students to focus on academic growth and leadership skills in a supportive community.
Global Perspective
Living out of backpacks and duffels, students engage in communities, learning firsthand about the real-life impacts of global issues such as climate change, indigeneity, race, power and privilege.
Next Generation Leaders
Empowering our students to take action and spark positive change. When young people build leadership skills, they become tomorrow’s changemakers.
My Traveling School semester is the single, richest, experience that I have ever had. It built my confidence, channeled my curiosity, encouraged me to consider my impact on the world and empowered me to make that impact positive. It launched me into my adult life and the person I had always wanted to become.
