Enrollment open for 2026–2027 · Serving children ages 5–12+ in Taos, NM
A self-directed learning space in the heart of Taos where children thrive and families are supported!
Inspire Roots is a self-directed learning cooperative in Taos, New Mexico — where children ages 5–12+ build real academic foundations and practical life skills through hands-on, mentor-guided learning rooted in the rhythms of the natural world.
Children here craft their own educational journeys with the full support of experienced facilitators — pursuing core academics, creative arts, and land-connected projects in ways that are meaningful, rigorous, and responsive to who they are. This is not learning without structure. It is learning with the right structure — one that honors each child’s path while ensuring they grow in confidence, competence, and connection.
We support homeschooling families and those seeking a thoughtful, intentional alternatives to what is currently available — with full-time, part-time and aftercare options designed around your family’s real life.
Reciprocity is the foundation of all we do. We believe that when children are in genuine relationship with mentors, peers, and the natural world, they don’t just learn… they grow into capable, connected, purposeful people.
Enrollment open for 2026–2027, beginning August 31st. Sliding scale tuition available.
