Cal Wood

This November 2–4, all 6th Grade Explore students will have the exciting opportunity to spend three days and two nights learning, exploring, and adventuring with their classmates at Cal-Wood!

This immersive outdoor education experience combines hands-on science, environmental exploration, teamwork, and plenty of time outdoors. Students will learn alongside Cal-Wood’s expert educators while discovering the natural world around them and building connections with their classmates.

During their time at Cal-Wood, students will explore topics such as:

• 🔥 Fire ecology
• ❄️ Snow science
• 🌦️ Weather
• 🌲 Forestry
• 🪨 Geology
• 🐸 Pond ecosystems
• 
  

Every Cal-Wood program is designed to meet students where they are academically and socially, giving them opportunities to learn by doing, ask questions, work together, and experience science in a whole new way.

About Cal-Wood

Cal-Wood has been providing unique outdoor educational experiences since 1982. Their mission is to inspire a deeper appreciation for the natural world, expand access to environmental education, and provide meaningful learning experiences in a beautiful mountain setting.

We are so excited for our 6th graders to step outside the classroom, try new things, explore the mountains, and create lasting memories with their classmates!

We will be announcing Cal-Wood Information Meetings for all families to get more information and any questions answered about the trip. You can also visit our Cal-Wood Page on the Explore Website.
