Future School Outdoor Education

Education. Outside.

Purpose

Get kids outside. That sounds really simple, but it's our entire mission. Recreating in the outdoor space seems like it would be really easy, right? Well, there are lots of barriers to entry. The largest of which is cost. Outside is EXPENSIVE. We remove every barrier we can and we get kids outside.
