Rooted Schools ministry helps Christian schools make vision a reality and supports those who work with Christian schools.
We help Christian schools know how to make vision a reality in practical steps and support the people in Christian schools so they thrive and bear fruit, successfully living the daily life of leader and teacher.
We craft books, blogs, and newsletters. Speak and lead workshops. And, creatively consult for school and personal growth.
We are committed to joy and courage that comes from knowing God and His Word as we help you climb your mountain.
We dream of helping schools around the world with truths about school and learning that will grow equipped and courageous students.
We believe that when schools start with truth from God’s Word for operations, practices, and pedagogy, they will experience power and peace, and bring distinct value to parents and students.
We have a special interest in serving principals. Really, anyone who leads to make mission and vision a reality in everyday practice. Biblical. Researched. Practiced. Insights for real life with real truth that works.

Welcome to Rooted Schools!
"Growing strong, fruitful schools and people"I am so glad you found us. If you are serving in Christian schools, you are doing important things. It is a journey worth your life. We would like to help it be good for you.
In thirty-two years of active leadership in Christian schools, I found so much good and so many lives changed. But, I also saw a few areas where I think we can help.
First, many times I saw things that we wanted or needed to do in our schools. Sometimes, though, we would sit back and say, “But, how do we do that?” We want to help you know “how to do that,” especially within the resources of the average Christian school and those who serve there.
Second, we want to look a little harder at what God’s Word says for how we do school. While we love business, education, and best practices, we are convinced we can increase our impact and joy by going to God’s truth first. We love seeing His truth work!
Third, we found lots of friends serving in Christian schools who could use more support in just having someone else’s ear and input. Or, in figuring out how to live the unique life of a Christian school leader or teacher. We love to help with that.
So, I hope you find something useful here. I would love to hear from you, especially if you need help and don’t know where to go. We would also appreciate your prayers for the Rooted Schools as we try to find and fill gaps to make the road smoother.
Blessings,
Joe Neff
