Springhouse is awakening vitality through education that brings out the life in us all! They are unique as they’re an on-the-ground example of holistic, eco-centric, place-based learning. Springhouse is not just an idea, they are a learning community that is evidence of what’s possible when life is at the center.
Now nationally and internationally recognized as a leader in regenerative educational design, Springhouse inspires others who are looking to redesign education from the roots up in ways that foster life.
#SpringhouseStories give hope and encourage many to deepen their connection to life. I hope my story inspires you!
In a world where unfulfilling, boring, life-sucking, depressing lives are the majority, I would find myself getting sucked into pits of hopelessness. Will my life be like that? What's the point of existing if you spend all of your time enabling yourself to live instead of just living. When I felt that way I would often find a way to numb out, often through screens, video games, tv shows, and social media. These methods of numbing out lead me to deep loneliness and isolation. Then, I found Springhouse, I joined in my 7th-grade year, and found myself interacting with more and more people, and being truly seen by those people. Fast forward to now, my 11th-grade year. I am more alive than ever, I have become a leader in the community, someone that people look up to. That is because Springhouse met me where I was at, recognized me, and helped me awaken a deep life source inside of me. That happened through my relationship with my mentors, my peers, and experiencing education in a way that focused on life. I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to be in this safe space, where I can trust myself to embrace my personal life source, and contribute to the bigger life source that is Springhouse.
This is the time to connect and give to a learning community that awakens vitality and empowers people to courageously respond to the world’s emerging needs. GIVE TODAY!
