Hands-on Education

Since May 2024, Camp Dudley Outdoor School has served 7,150 students from 52 schools across 22 school districts. Our program focus is on fifth and sixth graders, but we love hosting younger and older students as well!

We take the science concepts that students have studied at school and bring them to life through game-based learning, field studies, and hands-on investigations. Outdoor school stations are interdisciplinary, state standards-aligned, tactile, and fun: we intertwine Indigenous science, Western science, history, writing, art, math, engineering, Since Time Immemorial curriculum, and social emotional learning to help students develop a meaningful, comprehensive vision of our connected world.
