Curriculum Connections
Students in full-day Kindergarten
meet two times per month for an outdoor education class that brings
classroom themes to life as students engage in hands-on learning
experiences presented through backcountry and ecological perspectives.
Students in grades one through
four meet informally with PEAK instructors for lessons
on specific topics as requested by the classroom teacher. Lessons
on the pond, the forest, the field and the river are common during
the Lower School Habitat Study in the spring.
