Our Mountain Academy of Arts & Sciences Students Set Off On Overnight Hiking Trip:


We are so proud of our Mountain Academy students this year. They have worked hard and overcome so much to arrive, finally, at this pinnacle learning experience! Blending strong academics with learning in the field takes hours and hours of preparation, care, and strong relationship building. These students are not just ready for backpacking, they are ready to take on the world. A huge thank you to Mr. Miles Groth, Mrs. Kara Jeck, Mr. Eric Wester, and Mrs. Sarah Ulizio for guiding these students with love through our amazing mountain forests.
