In April, our fifth-grade class enjoyed an adventurous week at science camp. Led by their teacher Kaelyn Hsu, the students spent the week hiking, exploring, and being immersed in nature while participating in hands-on learning. They learned about biology, ecology, and environmental stewardship. Our students danced, sang songs, made s’mores, held animals, and made new friends. They left camp with more confidence, personal responsibility, a greater sense of independence, and a deeper connection to the natural world.
