The experience
At Yestermorrow you will find a friendly, hard-working, engaging, and creative learning community. Outside the classroom, mealtimes and off-hours provide an opportunity to interact with students in your class and from other classes, as well as with instructors and staff. The discussions and professional networking that occur outside of the classroom are an added bonus and are often reported to be as beneficial as the classes themselves.
The location
The Yestermorrow campus is located in the heart of the Mad River Valley on the un-ceded territory of the Western Abenaki tribes. The area is known for it's ample outdoor recreation opportunities - most notably skiing and mountain biking. “The Valley” sits in the geographical center of the state, one hour southeast of the state’s prominent city, Burlington, and 30 minutes southwest of Montpelier, the state’s capital. The region has a vast collection of historic villages, a beautiful, bucolic landscape, and endless recreational possibilities. Each season is enriched with performing arts, cultural and sporting events, and festivals.
Onsite activites
While Yestermorrow classes are intensive and don’t leave students a lot of free time, the campus offers options for activity and entertainment. The school library is open 24 hours a day with a large selection of books, periodicals, and videos. In the summertime, the surrounding woods offer quiet getaway spots, and in the evening students often gather around the fire pit or in the kitchen for an impromptu jam session. The lawn outside the main building frequently hosts games of soccer or Frisbee. The campus hosts trails to explore year-round. Along the nearby Mad River, there are many swimming holes to enjoy, stunning vistas, and great recreational opportunities abound.
