Forest Friday meets the Thetford Academy Outdoor Education Program!  

On Friday, November 1st, Della Cote, Claire Halter, and Charlie Gartner attended the Upper Valley Teaching Place Collaborative Conference to share their student perspectives on outdoor education.  These students, along with two TA students, gave a couple of presentations showing how we learn outdoors and what that means to them.  

The students showed examples from their learning and answered many questions about what outdoor learning looks and feels like at their school.  These students represented the Lyme School with sophistication, creativity, and the courage it took to speak in front of about 100 people.
