As we wrap up the second trimester today, our annual Expeditionary Learning adventures are a little over a week away. I know students and our Upper School faculty are excited for these annual adventures. 

Expeditionary learning is an important part of the Trinity School experience. These activities take a variety of forms: 

All of these experiences afford the participants the opportunity to grow as individuals, to build self-confidence, and to learn to take calculated risks. Expeditionary Learning allows students to build deeper relationships with their peers and the adults who guide them. These activities help students build trust and a stronger sense of belonging to their community. Along the way, students also pick up skills and strategies that will remain with them throughout their lifelong learning journey.

I am proud to be engaged in an educational community that prioritizes these experiences as part of the academic year. We will have fun as we develop transferable skills and in doing so we will learn a lot about the world, about each other, and ourselves.
