Stevensville, MI

Where learning takes root and fun runs wild!

Welcome to Wild Roots! We are a secular, outdoors-focused educational program providing unstructured free play and individualized academic instruction.

Secular- We celebrate all walks of life and do not integrate any religious teaching into our curriculum.

Outdoors-focused: Excluding thunderstorms and school closings for extreme cold, we spend at least two hours per day outside, every single day.

Individualized academic instruction: Students are not taught based on their “grade”, instead taught at their instructional level to promote steady progress.

Prior to starting Wild Roots, each student will be assessed and a personlized curriculum will be ordered for them. This means if they fall at a level 3 for reading and level 1 for math, their entire curriculum will be bundled appropriately for their needs. We focus on progress, growth, and meeting students where they are.
