Trailblazers provides hands-on science, storytelling, and creative exploration for homeschoolers in Northern Arizona.
We’re committed to building a space where curiosity is honored, creativity is celebrated, and every student feels a strong sense of belonging. Through meaningful projects, community connection, and joyful learning, Trailblazers empowers students to grow with confidence and purpose.
-
Trailblazers meets in a dedicated classroom space in downtown Flagstaff at 121 E Birch Ave. The space is used exclusively by our program, providing a consistent, welcoming environment designed with our students in mind.
In addition to indoor learning, we regularly venture out into nearby parks and the downtown area, giving students time outdoors and meaningful opportunities to connect with their local community.
-
Our classes take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9am-2pm.
We host special events on Fridays, and sometimes Saturday nights, which varies regarding time and place. We keep it all organized in our private Band app so no one misses out.
-
Trailblazers is open to homeschoolers ages 6 to 14. Our program is divided into three multi-age groups:
Scouts 6-8 years old
Explorers 8-11 years old
Voyagers 11-14 years old
Our Scouts class is capped at a 1:8 teacher-to-student ratio to support younger learners with plenty of individual attention, play, and project-based learning.
-
Our program weaves together hands-on science, STEM challenges, storytelling, literature, and creative projects. Every subject is taught through active, engaging experiences that blend the curiosity of play-based learning with the depth of project-based work tailored to each age group.
-
We believe sunshine and fresh air are just as essential as hands-on projects and creative exploration. When the weather’s kind, lunch is served picnic-style outdoors, followed by free play and social time. These unstructured afternoons give kids the freedom to run, imagine, create, and simply be kids together.
-
The outdoors is an extension of our classroom. Beyond our weekly schedule, students might join us for hikes and nature adventures on select Fridays or take part in Forest Fridays (a free perk for Scouts hosted by Montessori Forest Adventurers) where they spend the day exploring, building, and discovering in the forest.
