Since 2018, Cobscook Shores Outdoor Education Program has been committed to creating a meaningful and enriching opportunity for students, emphasiz­ing environmental awareness and lifetime fitness. “CSOEP” has developed an interdisciplinary curriculum to complement the students’ classroom teaching with time devoted to outdoor activity. This serves to integrate an awareness of aerobic fitness with stewardship of the environment. Through the programs four season activities, students from kindergarten through eighth grade learn lessons in wayfinding, botany, geology, geography, and ecol­ogy, while participating in four-hour activities such as kayaking, canoeing, biking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. These field trips take place at Cobscook Shores’ parklands.
