The Discovery House child
Who are we preparing them to become?
We want our friends to leave Discovery House as confident, capable and compassionate young people who know how to learn, think, communicate, create, collaborate and contribute.
Everything in our environment — the materials, the freedom, the guidance and the community — exists to help each child discover who they are and what they can do.
