Outdoor Ed In Yosemite Valley

InstagramNews October 8, 2025

Hikes in Yosemite, campfires with friends, community building games, outdoor ecology, and more! 7th and 8th grade students are experiencing all of this on their annual outdoor ed overnight trip this week. From bunking in cabins with friends, to soaking up the natural beauty around them, to learning about forest fires and pond ecology, students are growing and stretching in new ways. We can’t wait to hear about their experiences when they return on Friday! 🥾🏕

Thank you to our 7th and 8th grade teachers, as well as our parent and caregiver chaperones for making this trip happen! 🌿
