Programs
One of the unique aspects of the High Sierra Outdoor Education program is our purposeful focus on "relationship". True education does not take place without first establishing trust which initiates the development of relationship betwen people. All of our staff have been thoroughly trained in the Natural Sciences and in the vast array of Outdoor Education skills, but our main focus remains on the development of relationship between our staff and your students. We are not here simply to disseminate academic information but to gently guide your students through a new and experiential adventure in the discovery of self, of nature, and of the fundamental perceptual skills of the Naturalist Intelligence.
Your week will begin with a comfortable and orderly orientation to your specific campground and a delicious luncheon prepared by the camp staff. The first classes are designed to not only introduce your students and staff to the foundational academic concepts that are to be built upon during the course of the week, but will include a safe and friendly acclimatization to your new surroundings. Under the guidance of our highly skilled staff, your students will quickly become comfortable in, and fascinated with, the exploration of the wonders of nature.
