Leadership Through Outdoor Education
Upper School students gain essential skills by working with nature, including important leadership skills. Whether it’s kayaking, white water rafting, or hiking —adventures call for specific language cues and gestures to ensure safety. Through nature, our students learn to communicate, conquer fears, persevere, and have empathy.
Cross-Curricular Connections
6th-grade students combined their social studies module on colonization with their love for space. Each student designed a patch that an astronaut could wear to remind the astronauts and scientists that we should learn from the tough lessons in history. NASA was so impressed with the patches that they wrote a letter back to each student.
Project Based Learning
8th graders presented their "Soundtrack of My Future”. By writing an autobiography of key moments of the possible future which included a specific career and college they were able to evaluate different career paths along with learning how to budget for their current and future self.
Outdoor Education in Lower School
We are advocates and good stewards of our planet! Advocacy is a core value at CCS that is taught throughout every grade level.  Our students are taught to advocate for what is right and to take pride in their campus- including the acres and acres of our outdoor classroom!
