Brynn (middle school student)

“Way better than being in the classroom. I can’t wait to go back.”

Kaycee (middle school student)

“My favorite thing about MOSA was learning about trapping. This was super fun and educational! I got to see all sorts of different furs including an arctic fox fur! I also learned about different types of traps and how to set some of them. I was having lots of fun learning about these animals and how to trap them. This is just one of the best parts of outdoor school. There are all sorts of other fun things to experience there!”

Lauren (high school student)

“Outdoor education is the only way to immerse kids in the science of the natural world. Students can learn about their environment in the classroom, but they need to get outside to really learn from their environment. The things students learn by interacting with the natural world -observing organisms, collecting data, analyzing natural process - stick with them better than what they learn by reading or even modeling in the classroom.”

Allyson (parent of a student)

“The setting and structure of MOSA allows students to gain understanding and appreciation for natural science that is not realized from book learning alone.”

Kyla (high school student)
