COMMON GROUND Our Common Ground program is a cutting-edge experiential learning activity focused on social and emotional learning. Activities are all ground-based and portable. The program is inclusive, engaging, thought-provoking, and fun. KEY DIFFERENTIATOR We have been delivering programs focused on social and emotional learning since 1980. We are the most purposeful, fun, and inclusive experience students can have. Our Common Ground program is coveted in the fall for its ability to bring students together by breaking down barriers and cliques while building inclusive relationships. In the spring, the program re-energizes participants and builds team skills. IDEAL CLIENT - Students and educators everywhere are challenged to work together more than ever before. Public and private schools throughout Virginia will benefit from our program. CREATING LIFE-LONG IMPACT - We have served well over students since 1980- We have been working with some schools for more than 20 years- We are viewed as THE leader in experiential education in the Richmond area- We are a “right-of-passage” for many schools- We have developed a 3 year curriculum so students do not repeat activities from year to year and are challenged at the appropriate level as they age up through middle and high school. Common Ground works well for administrators and staff in-service days as professional development and training.
