Blue Ridge Outdoor School

Mixed age groups of learning are so valuable! Confidence and physical strength are some of the tangible pieces of growth we see every year from all of our learners.

Parent testimony # 2- knowledge is power! Identifying and appreciating the world around you is so important for future sustainability of our Earth. How many plants, trees, and species can you identify?!

Parent Testimonials Part 1. All of the parents had unique and important reasons to enroll their child(ren) at Blue Ridge Outdoor School! Thank you for choosing us ❤️

Our last week of school brought us all of the weather! 90 degrees with sand and water, to pouring rain that brought the mud play. We had a fantastic year and excited to continue the adventure through summer!

Thank you for a fun field trip!

Last week we went to - Thanks for the adventures and hosting us- we can’t wait to come back!
