Philosophy At Mighty Roots Academy, we believe it is most important to develop the skills of independent learning that equip students for a lifetime of inquiry and growth. A true education builds the skills needed for becoming a lifelong learner. We believe that students benefit most when skill-building is the focus, no matter the subject.
Goals The primary goal of Mighty Roots Academy's approach is to train students to be curious about the world around them which leads to a constant and lifelong learning mindset as students learn how to learn. Academic success is a natural by-product of this approach.

Nature is at the core of our program at Mighty Roots Academy. We take learning outdoors as much as possible; explore, playing and growing strong bodies and minds on our beautiful 5 acre campus.
Our classes bring together learning from core education subjects, practical arts, and performing arts for an education that focuses on the whole self not just the mind. When the students deeply explore their interests, the learning follows naturally with the guidance of our specialized staff.
