“Connection is why we are here. It is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives” Brene Brown

Connected Circles, LLC is an approved independent school located in Berlin VT. Our program incorporates processes and methodologies that are sensitive to a student’s culture, ethnicity, and personal/social identity. We provide individualized instruction in all basic skill areas to support students aged 12 through 22 in meeting their educational and life-long goals. We meet the students where they are and involve them in their program so they are actively engaged and feel successful. Many of our students have suffered from years of failure in educational settings. Our predictability and consistent routines help students manage their anxiety. Our program will help them override passive learning and defiance that is often seen in survivors of trauma. Our approach has it’s roots in relationships and connections with staff and fellow students. The students will begin to develop a sense of belonging in our safe, healthy, and respectful environment.
