About the Program:
North Shore Community School excels in connecting our students’ academics and learning with their natural and social environments in a nurturing community setting. We use the environment as an integrating context for learning in all subject areas. With forty acres, a school forest, a new greenhouse and a nature trail, ample opportunity exists to explore and create hands on learning experiences in the natural environment. Teachers use guided inquiry to capitalize on students interests and engage learners in meaningful encounters.
