For middle school students and parents, Outdoor Education is a highly anticipated time of year. For students, it’s a week away from the comforts of home, often for the first time. For parents, it’s a little nerve-racking (or thrilling, depending on how you feel about it!) to send them off to take care of themselves for a week. But one thing is certain, they always come home, a little dirtier than when they left, having had a fantastic time and ready to share their adventures!

Our Hermosa Beach kids are so fortunate to get a different Outdoor Ed experience each year of middle school. Science really comes to life when it’s experienced first-hand, outside the classroom.  HVPTO is proud to fund a grant to help offset the cost of our kids to attend these amazing adventures. It’s one of the reasons we do what we do and it’s why we ask for help to reach of fundraising goals.  #poweredbyHVPTO
