Learning with Meaning Moves Into Former Library

Learning With Meaning, INC has found a temporary home at the old Missoula Public Library.

Missoula Public Library recently opened its own new location downtown, leaving the former building, located at 301 East Main Street, vacant. Well, not anymore.

Learning WIth Meaning has been serving students of all ages in the Missoula community for the past seven years through homeschool programs, summer camps, a public makerspace and an accredited independent school. Their mission is to create experiential education opportunities for students who thrive in a “hands on” learning environment.

Learning with Meaning will host an open house at their downtown location on October 16th from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Families can learn more about the eNDVR K-5 homeschool enrichment program and the accredited Aspire Middle and High School program. Families can also learn more about enrolling for the upcoming quarter or for next year.

“It will be an amazing opportunity for our students to be downtown this year. We will be within walking distance of so many educational resources and so many great open spaces. While we are looking forward to being on our new campus, I can’t think of a better place to spend the next year.” Dr. Annie Graham, Executive Director of Learning With Meaning, INC.

"The new building allows for the mission and practices of Aspire to be fully realized by the space we occupy. With our new location, we will be able to actualize the massive potential that has been limited by our physical space in our beginnings." Mike Anderson, English and Social Studies Director at Aspire Middle and High School.
