Our 2026 Sessions

GrassRoots Middle offers a unique educational experience beyond the traditional classroom setting for homeschool families and children aged 9-14. Our BIPOC-centered, nature-based program is held once a week for 2.5 hours. It features two main blocks, each lasting 30-45 minutes, with the remaining time dedicated to outdoor activities, movement, and collaborative learning. We meet from 1:00 - 3:30 p.m. on Fridays throughout the Summer (invitation-only), Autumn, Winter, and Spring seasons. During our Spring session we introduced the below sessions. We will launch our Fall sessions once our Summer season concludes. Please email us for more information.
