Middle school students participate in our free Adventure Program, where we take students out of the classroom to see, touch, and experience what they are learning.
Each adventure is based on subject specific curriculum, and helps teachers teach the state standards in a more authentic way. These experiences create an environment where deeper and longer-lasting learning can occur.
Through engaging discussions and hands-on activities, students connect the unique location and curriculum of each trip to Entheos values, such as excellence, perseverance, enthusiasm, respect, and leadership.
Incorporating Expeditionary Learning Design Principles—like responsibility for learning, solitude and reflection, service and compassion, and the natural world—also provides our students with real-world opportunities to become leaders and active citizens within our communities.
While outdoors, the students are able to appreciate the natural world and learn how to take care of their surroundings. Students are also able to gain a variety of character building traits like selflessness, respect, perseverance, teamwork, and responsibility. These traits will help them to be better students and global citizens.
We have taken adventure trips to Dinosaur National Monument, Lake Powell, Cedar City, Moab, Diamond Fork Canyon, Camp Williams, and Camp Tuttle.
