Discover Term was started by three dads looking to help kids explore their untapped potential by getting offline and outside.

These experiences changed my life and who I am today. I look at nature with more awe and became grateful for the life I am living. I probably would have never discovered this without getting out of my comfort zone.”
Our adventures are designed to serve teenagers and preteens during pivotal developmental stages. Free from social media, the 24/7 news cycle, and the stresses of everyday life, our students stretch their limits to discover their true potential.
Students trade standard schooling for accelerated, place-based academics and smartphones for expert-led outdoor athletics.
Attendees are immersed in a dynamic experience that blends stunning outdoor adventure with meaningful, hands-on community service.

He came back with a newfound confidence and courage. To me, it’s the ultimate gift you can give your kids — experiences. They’re going to come back to you in their 20s and be so grateful and tell you what an impact it made. Do this because you want them to be a better human. It’s the experience of a lifetime.”
Discover Term adventures are grounded in nature — learning from it, taking care of it, and allowing it to stretch our limits. We structure our programs around the unique landscapes and industries of each campus location, immersing our students in everything these environments have to offer.

The biggest thing I’ve noticed is how much independence Elaia got and how good it is to watch her new lessons play out just by observation. Opportunities like this don't come along very often and I think it will forever have given Elaia something valuable. For parents willing to dare, Discover Term is a great opportunity for their kids.”
