In addition to our traditional residential and day programs, Hulbert now offers on-site and school based service-learning and leadership programs for elementary, middle and high school students. These intensive, curriculum-based programs extend the traditional Hulbert focus on effective group work and personal development into on-going action for students.
Our professional development workshops and consulting services help teachers bring our philosophy and approach to their work with colleagues and students. Whatever program options you choose, we will strive to design an experience that is meaningful and memorable.
Homeschool: Since 1990, Hulbert Outdoor Center has offered week-long residential programs for homeschooled children ages 9-17. Currently we offer two, one-week residential programs for throughout the year in March, and May. We believe that a week at Hulbert can be an excellent place for your child to meet other homeschoolers from all over the northeast and the country, to make friends, to try new experiences and activities, and to be part of a new, healthy, supportive community. Participants and their families most frequently find the Hulbert program something that they continue to integrate into their yearly homeschooling calendar.
Family Camps: Our Vermont Family Camps allow you to unplug from busy life, relax by the lake or the fire, adventure in the forests and mountains, and enjoy time with family and friends on our beautiful campuses. Our Winter and Summer Family Camps afford families an opportunity share the magic of Hulbert programming. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and each year new families, looking for a unique and memorable family vacation join us to reconnect and unwind.
