Overview:

The Logan School for Creative Learning is a K-8 progressive school with a dynamic curriculum that teaches the way children learn by giving them hands-on experiences fueled by their own curiosities. Individual student units are at the core of our curriculum. Our students, aged 4.5-14 years old, are co-architects with their teachers in building meaningful units of study that not only address the traditional "3 Rs" but also emphasize Research, Reasoning and Recording— skills that will prepare them for the challenges ahead. These individual Units are supported by Unit Field Trips, Matrix program, and Environmental Education program.

EE Trip Assistants accompany Logan School staff members on trips in and outside of Colorado for multi-day, place-based learning experiences. Their responsibilities include supporting trip leaders in whatever capacity needed (i.e. cooking, group management, driving, etc), and thoughtfully engaging with students.  Trips often include adventure elements such as camping, hiking, rafting, swimming, etc. Trips this spring are with elementary and middle school students.
