Getting Outside in Science

InstagramNews October 29, 2024

🌿 What better way to kick off the week than by getting outside? That’s precisely what our 6th grade scientists do every Monday with teacher Jo, who understands the positive impact that outdoor experiences can have on learning.

Throughout our beautiful campus this fall, students have been conducting experiments, gardening, and engaging in the Young Readers Edition of Braiding Sweetgrass together. We look forward to seeing their skills, knowledge, and vegetable seedlings flourish this year!
