🏕️ Three Weeks of Adventure Each Year
EAS students attend three one-week camping and adventure experiences each school year. These trips are a cornerstone of the EAS experience, building teamwork, resilience, and a love of the outdoors.
Proper gear is key to a great trip experience.
Community Stewardship Projects
🌿 Giving Back to the Community
All EAS students participate in two 4-day blocks of Community Stewardship Projects (CSP) during the school year. A variety of projects gives students opportunities for active involvement in both environmental and social stewardship in their community.
CSPs are a unique aspect of EAS that reflect our school's values of environmental awareness and community care.
