We've arrived! This afternoon we relaxed a bit in the dorms, unpacked, and had an orientation. Dinner was delicious and tonight's evening program is about the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Monday - Thursday, I'll have the kids write in blog posts, so check it out each evening!
They loved their first letters, by the way.

5 Days till Departure!

Hello Everyone,

Five more days and then we are off to the Teton Science School! Students have hopefully started counting their wool socks and considering snacks for our road trip!

We plan on arriving at Teton in the early afternoon and settling in our dorm rooms and doing a little orientation. A full, updated schedule has been put in your mailboxes. We'll be learning about the Snake River watershed, glaciers and lakes, how to do research, how to be good stewards of the earth. Of course, we'll also do some hiking and wildlife watching.

While on our trip, pairs of students will take turns writing in this blog. That way, you can see what they are up to and on a daily basis. The blog will provide a venue for a more personal, comic, and in depth account of our trip. Please feel free to comment on the blogs!
