Courses run from September through August and are a mixture of day long and multi day trips. Education Without Walls leans on our affiliates at The National Center for Outdoor & Adventure Education (NCOAE) for most of the courses. Outdoor education offers an exceptional environment for teens — one where instructors foster curiosity, students apply critical thinking and a positive peer culture is established.

Instructors use a Core Curriculum to guide lesson planning and the facilitation of experiential education activities that focus on personal development, community building and the acquisition and mastery of technical outdoor skills. As a result, Education Without Walls students make close friends and learn incredible skills, all while having a blast on adventures of a lifetime.

Kacie's experience as a camp counselor for three Summers taught her how impactful and fun mentoring students in the outdoors can be. Her vision for empowering students to take a step in discovering and becoming who they want to be came right alongside the mission of Education Without Walls. In her spare time she is probably swing dancing, exploring the woods, or reading.
