MNCS Wolf Ridge Enviro-Ed 3day trip
Donation protected
Thanks to the Le Sueur News Herald and reporter Ben Farniok for helping us promote the trip to Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center with MNCS students. Article link at: http://www.southernminn.com/article_8e96f9c2-4b86-5d13-a2d0-4d0e1c0e70d4.html
At the end of March, Minnesota New Country School (MNCS) students from our 6th-grade and High School will travel to Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center, located on 2,000 acres of beautiful north country wilderness near Finland, MN. For three days/nights (March 26-27-28) of outdoor exploration, environmental education, and learning-outside-the-box. MNCS and Wolf Ridge are committed to growing the next generation of informed "earth protectors" -- and we thank you for your support in this endeavor!
Your donation will help offset the total trip costs for approximately 30 students. Our hope is to make the Wolf Ridge trip more affordable for all of the students attending this year. Every 6th-grader at MNCS is invited to attend this "capstone" spring field trip, along with a group of select High School students, staff, and advisors.
THE MNCS VISION ~~ Students at the Minnesota New Country School grow to reach their full potential as:
>Purposeful Thinkers, who understand, apply, analyze, and evaluate creatively and independently;
>>Effective Communicators, who receive and convey meaning and messages successfully;
>>>Lifelong Learners, who take joy and discovery in invention and direct their own learning;
>>>>Responsible Citizens who contribute effectively to their communities; and
>>>>>Empathetic and Appreciative Individuals toward themselves, others, and the environment.
The Wolf Ridge mission is: “To develop a citizenry that has the knowledge, skills, motivation and commitment to work together for a quality environment.” Check out www.wolf-ridge.org for more info on programming, summer camps and more!
