About Us

Students choosing to attend The Learning House enter a community that is supportive, nurturing and receptive to their needs. Issues of mutual trust, respect and encouragement are primary to the relationships fostered between students and staff. This environment asks that every member be responsible and accountable for their contribution to the community. As students work within The Learning House community, they are faced with a multitude of choices. Some of these choices are made on their own, some with the help of peers, and others with the guidance of adults. Throughout their experience at The Learning House, students are asked by the community to accept responsibility for their choices. Because making choices is a life-long process and the results of one choice may have an impact on future choices, it is the goal of The Learning House to provide a consistent, yet supportive, approach to helping our students make better choices. When the results of a student's decision occur naturally, without the influence of any other person, especially of the adults around him, the student is much more likely to accept the consequence of his actions and learn from the experience. When this is not possible due to issues such as safety, efficiency, or clarity, it is still important that the results of a student's decision have some logical connection to the choice that was made. When students learn to make better decisions, not because they were forced to or because of an artificial reward, but because they choose to, they are in essence preparing themselves for the demands that will be placed on them in less restrictive educational settings and in their life after graduation.
