Stewardship Day
The middle school classes are hosting a Stewardship Day on November 6 from 10-2 pm. They will be working on some projects that will benefit their area of the school. All families are welcome to join, but we are putting out a specific ask for middle school families to come join in.
We are hoping to accomplish:
- Erecting two more tents for shade/rain cover
- Painting the sheds
- Beautifying the temporary fence
- Laying down more wood chips by the yurts
- Moving picnic tables
Hope to see you there!

Fundraisers to Support 8th grade
The 8th grade class is hosting a fundraiser selling Holiday flower bulbs. Please click on the link below to go to the website to purchase them. They will be shipped directly to you. The sale goes until December 3.
The 8th grade class is also starting to collect cans and bottles. The drop off area is by the first shed between the second and third yurts as you drive around the track. Feel free to drop them off at drop off or pick up time. There is enough space to pull over to not block the track.
Thanks for your support!

Roots to Rise
~Nurturing roots to support developmental growth~
Does your child struggle with learning challenges, sensory processing issues, ADHD, ADD, balance and coordination issues, eye tracking challenges, anxiety, melt downs, sleep issues, social and emotional challenges, weakness, fatigue, speech delay, autism, food sensitivities, PTSD? When the brain and body are not working well together, challenges arise.
Roots to Rise utilizes a holistic approach to enhance a child’s learning through supporting a healthy development of the Central Nervous System and the foundational senses (Tactile, Vestibular and Proprioception).
Children can make positive gains in attention, emotional well being, academics, coordination and balance through neurodevelopmental movements (integration of reflexes) and sensory integration. Jane Higgins, the founder of Roots to Rise has trained with Nina Gallwey, a remedial teacher at the Siskiyou School. Jane taught at Madrone Trail (Waldorf inspired), where she brought one class of students from first grade all the way to eighth grade.
Currently, Jane works with children one-on-one in her Roots to Rise Ashland office. Movement is brought in a playful and fun way specifically focusing on the integration of reflexes and sensory imbalances. “In my 30 years of working with children, I’ve never seen anything transform a child’s success as I have since focusing on sensory integration, and primitive and postural reflexes.”
