The aspen is one of the world’s strongest trees. It’s one of the first to reestablish after wildfires and other major disasters. Why? Each tree has an extensive root structure whose nutrients come from its parent tree’s root system. This allows the saplings to grow very quickly and to grow apart from the parent tree yet stay connected at the root.

Aspengrove provides those same strong, nurturing roots to its students. The school has created an interconnected system of families, teachers, students and community who work together so that students can achieve their full potential.
