Outdoor Education

Learning at Solebury School isn’t limited to the classroom. Solebury提供各种户外活动,充分利用我们在巴克斯县的地理位置, PA, 该地区以其起伏的丘陵和特拉华河沿岸的州立公园而闻名. 我们还通过举办多日旅行来探索美国的其他地区.

我们的目标是通过充满挑战和乐趣的短途旅行建立学生的信心,培养他们对自然的欣赏和尊重. Regardless of skill level, we take students outdoors to experience nature, to exercise and to inspire a sense of peace and well-being.

SEAC – Solebury’s Environmental Action Corps

对于那些对环境有热情的人来说,这个俱乐部是一个很好的代表环境的方式. Members encourage conservation here at Solebury, 以及提高人们对当今世界面临的环境问题的认识. We bring in speakers and have events on weekends. 我们特别自豪的是,在过去的十年里,我们一直是学校环境改善的推动力, including improved recycling policies, composting in the dining hall, and the creation of a community garden.

"This trip was everything I expected and more. 通过徒步前往锡安的天使着陆和16英里的大峡谷形成的独特友谊将持续一生. 我们都充分利用了每一种情况,从湿煎饼到多徒步几英里. 我会珍惜我们在车里跟着音乐一起唱歌的时光,以及我们在帐篷里深夜聊天的时光. 我无法想象用其他方式度过高三春假." ——索菲亚·吉安格拉索16岁,2016年春假去西南旅行
