AN EXCITING AND NEW CURRICULUM FOR SCHOOLS!

Teaching in schools as an elective class, our students earn credit while learning hard skills associated with rock climbing, paddling, backpacking, and more! Through our lessons and these activities, students gain social-emotional skills that help them navigate life outside of the classroom.

By offering our programming as an in-school class we remove many, if not all, the barriers associated with access to the outdoors. We build trust, familiarity, comfort, and understanding of the outdoors by introducing it as a regular and consistent class for our students.

NORMALIZING THE OUTDOORS THROUGH CONSISTENT IN AND OUT OF THE CLASSROOM EDUCATION!

Our students have earned graduating credit in Environmental Science, Physical Education, Elective Credit, Leadership Classes, and Health and Wellness.

Challenge By Choice

We encourage all of our students to try our activities through Challenge by Choice. Rather than requiring our students to reach a certain point on a climb or paddle a specific portion of the river, we let them decide how much they want to push themselves. While we encourage them to at least try, we recognize that everyone has different comfort and ability levels. For some students, getting into a canoe is enough of a challenge and for others, they want to send it right into the rapids. We want each student to determine for themselves how much they want to push their comfort zone, all while encouraging growth and personal development.

Sliding Scale

We understand each school has their needs, wants, limitations, and budgets. We feel our programming should be accessible and affordable for schools, so we charge on a sliding scale. During our exploratory meeting, we will gather information for a proposal that will include various pricing options. We ask schools to pay what they can so other schools with smaller budgets have the same opportunity.
