The Proof

Founded by Kasie Mainiero, Rooted was born from WeCare Schools — a program she built in Caddo Parish that grew to 25 schools. These schools made double digit growth in attendance, behavior, and academics. But the results didn’t just show up in data. They showed up in hallways, classrooms, and communities.

WeCare Schools: Where It All Started

The WeCare Schools initiative served as the proof of concept for everything Rooted Schools Consulting does today. Working with 25 schools across Caddo Parish, the program demonstrated that when you invest in relational culture — not just academic programs — you transform outcomes across the board.
