Forest School

Not only does ACE offer the traditional classroom approach to learning, it also offers Forest School where students go into the woods every day, rain or shine, to experience learning in the outdoors. One study showed that lessons in nature allow students to learn classroom curriculum while at the same time rejuvenate their capacity for learning. According to lead researcher, Ming Kuo, of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, kids can actually pay better attention in class after an outdoor lesson.
