High school credits are available to YoungWalkers who complete the ANASAZI walking. These credits may be of benefit to YoungWalkers who leave school temporarily to come to ANASAZI. ANASAZI’s academic program blends outdoor educational instruction with a traditional curriculum. ANASAZI has selected Northridge Learning Center as its curriculum provider.

Each area is treated experientially and evaluated through verbal and written exercises. The experiential vehicle of living and walking on the land helps enhance the student’s ability to retain the information learned for use in subsequent academic settings.

The Academic Packet contains information for parents and guidance counselors. The packet includes information for parents as well as a child’s school. Included are: a letter introducing us to your child’s school, an overview of the academic program, our course descriptions, and information on accreditation.
