Luke and Lily's paths first crossed in 2015 during a shared summer at TSS. Shortly after, they moved to Kunming, China, and started an outdoor/environmental education program! Read more about Luke and Lily's work in today's blog post! https://t.co/EzNm58Jm5w

Yesterday was insect day here on campus! And with a little rain, it happily turned into mud puddle engineering and worm observation day! Campers learned about and acted out insect life cycles, made camouflage butterflies and hide them in the bushes for other kids to find.

Adventuring through the Teton backcountry is a highlight for every Ultimate Grand Teton Adventure student ☀️ Wishing we were showing these blooms off to all of them this week, but can't wait to welcome them back next summer!

Ultimate Grand Teton Adventure would have been kicking off today! Since we can't welcome students in person, we're throwing it back to last year's epic adventure!

TSS in the news! This time in a brilliant piece written by Graduate Program alumnus, Drew Higgins (class of 2020)! Thank you, Drew, for this important reflection on environmental education in the time of Covid-19 🙏🏻 #placebaseded https://t.co/LmYszeFRTf

Our AmeriCorps service members may not be with us in person this summer, but they are still making a HUGE impact in our community! Just a glimpse behind the computer at some of our members in action!

Graduate program faculty are reading bell hooks' "Teaching to Transgress" this summer to further their growth as educators. We'll be sharing some of their learning in the coming months, but encourage you to check out her book as well! You can find a link in our latest blog post!

Connecting with Higher Grounds students is always a highlight of our summer...and you can see why! These students are with us for over a week and get to explore the best of the Tetons through overnight backpacking, hiking and canoeing! We can't wait to see them again next year!

Our grad students have a pretty stellar backyard, don't you think? Living within the National Park is a highlight of so many of our grads' experiences and we're still enrolling for the 20-21 school year! Find more information here: https://t.co/gLVDra99Xj

Peek-a-boo! Our second week of summer camps are off to a start! From the looks of last week's camps, our campers have been enjoying some glorious days outside, safely, socially-distanced and sometimes a little silly, too!

[Teton Science @tetonscience]

Have you ever hiked in Yellowstone? Last year's @RoadScholar hiking group had the chance to explore beyond the main attractions while visiting the park. We think they found a pretty good spot, what about you?

String Lake dreamin'! @childrensgrandadventure participants enjoy a glorious paddle around String Lake last summer. We can't wait to reunite with this group again!

That first day of summer camp feeling! This morning we welcomed 26 campers to our Jackson Campus for a week of safe & socially distanced outdoor learning and play. While things may look a bit different, we're welcoming the burst of new energy to Coyote Canyon this week!

Happy 4th of July! Have a safe and happy holiday!

Sliding into the weekend like...

Last year's @childrensgrandadventure participants made the most of a patch of snow discovered on their explorations at @jacksonhole mountain resort!

Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
