Our 6th-grade High Ability students had a great time at Outdoor Discovery Day!

Students explored nature and built new skills through hands-on activities. They practiced tomahawk throwing, completed a tree scavenger hunt, caught and released fish, learned how to pitch a tent, and enjoyed a round of disc golf.

It was a fun day of learning, teamwork, and trying new things outside the classroom!
