Outdoor Education in Middle School this year has been full of exploration, learning, art, and time in nature. Students learned how to build emergency shelters, safely build campfires, identify spring ephemeral wildflowers, carve their hiking sticks in the art studio, and work together. In April, Outdoor Education had a cookout at the fire circle where they cooked a feast of penne pasta with a pesto made from garlic mustard and ramps that were foraged on campus. The feast also included a color-changing lemonade made from violet flowers, homemade bread, and. of course, s’mores! Enjoy photos from their cookout here!
