MENTORS WHO MATTER & EXPAND FREEDOM, TRUTH, & COMPASSION
HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE MENTORS WE HAVE HAD AT APOGEE
OUR WHY
Apogee Lockhart is part of the Apogee Schools network, a movement redefining education by empowering children to become sovereign thinkers, problem-solvers, and leaders in their own lives. Here, learning is not about test scores or obedience—it’s about mastery, real-world skills, and self-discovery.
- Learning is woven into the rhythms of nature, mentorship, and hands-on experiences.
- Leadership is cultivated through self-mastery, resilience, and service.
- Community is the foundation—families grow together, not apart.
The apogee lockhart vision
"The future of humanity depends on how we educate the next generation."
— Zach Bush MD
For too long, education has been a machine of extraction—standardizing children, stripping away curiosity, and conditioning them to fit into systems that no longer serve life.But true education is not about fitting in. It is about becoming. At Apogee Lockhart, we believe:
Learning should be regenerative. It should nourish the child, the land, and the community.
Children are born wise. Our role is to protect and amplify their natural intelligence.
Community is the classroom. We learn together, across generations, through shared experience.
Education should prepare children for life, not just a career.We are not just rethinking education. We are returning it to its rightful place—woven into the fabric of life itself.
what makes us different?
The Future of Education is Already Here!
Most schools prepare children to follow. We prepare them to lead.
Most schools train children to memorize. We cultivate mastery through experience.
Most schools operate in isolation. We are a thriving, interdependent learning community.
How We Learn at Apogee Lockhart
Nature-Based Education → The land is our teacher—children learn through ecological stewardship, farming, and foraging.
Self-Directed Mastery → There are no arbitrary grades—only mastery of essential life skills.
Mentorship Over Traditional Teaching → Learning is guided by real-world experts, elders, and artisans.
Physical, Mental & Emotional Strength → Strength training, resilience practices, and emotional intelligence are woven into the curriculum.
Storytelling & Ancestral Wisdom → We reclaim the oral traditions that have shaped human learning for millennia.
Family-Centered Learning → Parents are not bystanders—they are co-learners, growing alongside their children.We are not preparing children for an outdated system.
We are empowering them to shape the world they will inherit.
