Wediko School students have been digging in and giving back through a local food-growing initiative with the Kearsarge Food Hub!

Working alongside staff, students have contributed more than 40 volunteer hours planting and harvesting vegetables for the Hub’s “FREEdge,” a free community refrigerator and food pantry providing fresh, healthy food to neighbors in need.

Certified diving students from The Wediko School recently participated in a diving expedition to the Isles of Shoals!

During the dive, students observed gray and harbor seals in their natural habitat, with the curious seals swimming among the group, weaving between divers and getting close enough for students to witness their playful personalities. The experience gave students a rare opportunity to connect with wildlife in a way that few people have the chance to experience.

Kudos to the students for their achievements in the Open Water Diver program, and to Mr. Dawson for facilitating this one-of-kind course!

We have ourselves a Capps Island camping success! 🌳⛺

During break week, Wediko School students paddled out to Capps Island for an unforgettable overnight adventure. Students wasted no time getting their fishing lines in the water—one student caught his very first fish on Black Pond and went on to reel in five more!

The group enjoyed grilled hot dogs and corn, s’mores under the moonlight and watched the sunrise, followed by more fishing and a hearty pancake breakfast before canoeing back to campus. Students rated their experience "10 out of 10" and hope to return during future break weeks. 🛶

Last week, students and staff from The Wediko School stepped away from our regular programming for a day of in the beautiful outdoors on Mt. Monadnock.

With stunning views and hikers of all ability levels, everyone had the opportunity to challenge themselves while encouraging and supporting one another. Each person set their own pace, faced the challenge in their own way, and kept moving forward with the support of the group.

It was quite the moment when everyone made it to the summit! 🎉A tremendous accomplishment for our students and staff—and a great example of the perseverance and teamwork that made the day so meaningful.

The Wediko School recently took its first off-campus overnight trip to the White Mountains—and what an adventure it was! 🌳

Students and staff packed the trip with fun, new experiences. The group challenged themselves on a high ropes course, hiked through Flume Gorge, enjoying dined out together and bonded over preparing a delicious breakfast at the Airbnb.

A huge thank-you to Milieu Director Tory Baulier for thoughtfully planning this incredible experience and creating so many opportunities for our students to try something new and make lasting memories. 🏔️

What a day at Wediko's 2026 Summer Carnival! 🎪

Carnival-style games, a dunk tank and an incredible lineup of treats were enjoyed by all—including cotton candy, snow cones, giant pretzels, fried dough and hand-pressed lemonade.🍋🍿

One of the highlights was an amazing green screen photobooth operated by Art Teacher Ms. Ellinwood and several art students. 🎨 The photography team snapped photos throughout the day with fun and creative, action-packed backgrounds—and even printed the photos on the spot!

Thanks to everyone who made the carnival such a memorable afternoon for our day program students, residential students and Camp Wediko campers. We are grateful for the opportunity to celebrate another beautiful summer and the community that makes Wediko such a special place. 💙

We are delighted to share that The Wediko School is in the process of building a beautiful new playground!

Promoting movement, problem-solving and persistence, this installation is an extension of Wediko’s therapeutic approach, creating opportunities for growth while serving as an engaging and fun focal point for all youth on campus. Each piece of equipment has been selected to expand the number of opportunities our students have to build confidence, experience safe challenges and achieve success.

While we await funding to complete the second phase of this project, the initial installation has already generated excitement among students and staff alike. We look forward to playing, learning and growing together between our new slide, swings, bars and beams!

Another school year is in the books and we have so many reasons to celebrate!🎓

Last weekend, we marked the end of a great year with our students and families, staff and community members at The Wediko School's 2026 Awards Ceremony. Each of our students received awards to mark their personal growth throughout the year, and we proudly recognized Wediko’s middle school and high school graduates who are preparing to step into their next chapter.

We were especially excited to celebrate our eight high school graduates—the largest graduating class we've had in years!

Congratulations, Class of 2026, and to all of our students who continue to learn and grow with us. 🎉

🍃WEDIKO'S ANNUAL ROADSIDE CLEAN-UP 👷‍♀️

Continuing our Earth Day tradition, students and staff from both our school and residential programs recently joined forces to pick up litter along the road that leads to campus. This is a day we look forward to every spring, as it gives us a chance to show appreciation for our local community and environment. An impressive 475 pounds of trash was collected, which included 12 tires pulled from a nearby stream! 🎉

This week, we recognized each group's phenomenal efforts with a series of awards, such as the “Detail Detectives Award” for the group that collected even the tiniest pieces of trash, “Most Pounds of Trash Collected,” and “Most Interesting Item Found."

Well done to everyone who contributed to another successful clean-up!
