My Project

The Outdoor Wilderness Leadership class at central high school focuses on wilderness survival, conservation, and fly fishing; these items will help kids get outside and enjoy the outdoors, which is more necessary than ever as a result of COVID-19. Research shows that students that spend more time outside show improved performance in class. The Outdoor Wilderness leadership class is designed to give kids leadership and teamwork skills that will carry them well beyond graduation as well as wilderness survival skills that could be potentially lifesaving. Students will benefit from these items for many years to come.
