Instructors deliver residential, 1-5-day environmental education programs to 4th - 8th grade students from New England schools. We focus on social and emotional learning, science and engineering skills, and adventure education. Our lessons are standards- aligned and each program is customized to support student learning in the classroom. The hands-on lessons focus on building critical thinking skills and exploring the connections between the natural and human-made world. Instructors also facilitate team building (initiatives and low ropes) to develop students’ leadership and problem-solving skills. Instructors are responsible for educating a group of 10-12 students throughout the program, including facilitating day and night lessons, leading large group activities and hosting meals. Our Fall Season starts on September 4th and runs through mid November.
