We strive to accomplish our core routines and reflections every day, but otherwise our days are anything but typical… One day we could be building shelters, another day could see us uncovering critters in a pond. We may be rock climbing or paddling a river or jumping into the role of a busy bee pollinating flowers. Maybe it’s maple syrup, orienteering, bird watching or trees – our day follows student-led interests.
It may look something like this:
