For many students, summer is a much-needed break from all the stress that comes with conventional school. Ironically, summer often creates conditions that are actually better for learning.

Control: Kids and teenagers often have more choice about how to spend their time, instead of having their days planned out for them based on the requirements of a curriculum.
Socializing: Young people are allowed to talk during the summer. They can pay attention to their friendships, and to valuable life skills like conflict resolution and empathy.
Unstructured Time: During the summer, young people are more likely to have time away from structured, adult-led activities: They have time to dive into their interests. To play. To work through boredom. To explore what it means to be themselves.

Shouldn’t your child get to live like that all the time? Shouldn’t they get to be themselves every single day?

At Tallgrass, that's what they get. Our students have the time and the space to learn what they want out of life. They experience the benefits of summer break all year long.

Your child deserves to be themselves all year long. Contact us today to learn more, or download our e-book, "Is Self-Directed Education Right for Your Child?"
