Mission

Wayfinder Schools offers relational learning programs that transform the nature of a high school education by providing students with the skills and experience necessary to discover their strengths, connect with their families, practice personal responsibility, and contribute to their communities, and which culminate in awarding a high school diploma from the State of Maine. We offer a home-based Passages Program for teen parents, and for students who have struggled in traditional high school settings.

Passages Program

Wayfinder Schools offers a home-based high school diploma program called Passages. Passages provides individualized instruction to students in their own homes. In addition to providing students the opportunity to earn a high school diploma, we work with them to develop the life skills, and in some cases, parenting skills, they need to become stronger, more self-sufficient members of the community.
