Personal Empowerment
Our learning environment embraces choice & freedom along with collaboration between students, facilitators, and the local community. The structure of our program allows for students, facilitators, and parents to have a voice and take an active role in building the community they want.Love of Learning
Our kids love learning because they have the freedom and flexibility to design and direct their own education, govern their learning community, and both receive academic support and caring guidance from skilled mentors. All of this sets them up to thrive.Powerful Tools
As an agile learning community explosive learning is activated by harnessing powerful tools for self-organization and intentional culture creation, allowing our students to deeply engage with the world through their passions and strengths.![](https://freetolearncommunity.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/hands-in-mush-e1520976122106-150x150.jpg)
What do you want to accomplish today?
In an Agile Learning Community, we discern and articulate what we want to do, individually and as a group.

How can you share it with the world?
We document our work to record, exhibit, and share our experience with others.
We prepare young people for the world they are growing up into by empowering them to actively create it.
We use leading edge tools and culture creation practices to provide students with the maximal support with minimal interference.
We are active collaborators in the ALC Network. We aren’t in this game alone! Check out the growing network of ALCs.
