  • Wilderness Journey School Programs

    CONTRACT PROGRAMS - PRIMARILY SCHOOL PROGRAMS. WORKING CLOSELY WITH OUR SCHOOL PARTNERS AND THE LAND, WE CREATE UNIQUE WILDERNESS JOURNEYS THAT INTEGRATE EXPEDITION TRAVEL, COMMUNITY SERVICE, FARMING, CRAFTS, AND EXPERIENTIAL ACADEMIC DISCOVERY. LIVING AND TRAVELING IN NATURE REQUIRES COMMITMENT AND COOPERATION WITHIN THE GROUP. AS INDIVIDUALS FACE CHALLENGES, THEY LEARN TO RELY ON EACH OTHER AND OFFER ONE ANOTHER PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT. UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF KROKA STAFF AND THE CLASS TEACHER, STUDENTS BECOME EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATORS AND PROBLEM-SOLVERS, AND DEVELOP A WORK ETHIC. THESE LESSONS TRANSLATE DIRECTLY INTO DAILY LIFE IN THE CLASSROOM.
