10 students hiked 14 miles on steep & rocky terrain on the Appalachian Trail! They learned how to treat their water, set up camp, build a fire, protect their food from bears, and navigate with a map and compass. 🏕️ #notallclassroomshavefourwalls #OutdoorEd

Last week, 8th grade BIPOC students had lunch with Upper School BIPOC students. The Middle Schoolers were inspired by the conversations they had with their older peers about life in the Upper School. Students mentoring each other builds community and we love to see it!
