One of the most exciting and enriching experiences for our 5th grade students is the Exploring New Horizons Outdoor School in Sempervirens. The 2022-2023 5th graders are scheduled to attend May 15-19, 2023; county and state guidelines permitting. Alisal takes this trip at the end of the school year so we are moving ahead with fundraising and plans to attend. Refunds will be issued if the camp cancels the program.
Sempervirens is located in Scotts Valley. Naturalists lead students in hands-on, place-based learning, concentrating on interdependence, cycles, energy flow, natural history, and more, deepening students’ ecological knowledge and interest in science and environmental stewardship. School groups also engage in cooperative team building activities, including family style dining, designed to build trust within and between the hiking groups and participating classes or schools. On all three days, curriculum is correlated to the 5th grade science standards.
The amount per student to attend Outdoor School is $405 per child which includes food, and lodging.
You can pay once in full or you can pay in three (3) installments.
