This year, AMS is all into the trappings of steam punk. With visions of “The Time Machine” by Jules Verne or “Leviathan” by Scott Westerfield, she aimed at creating a post-apocalyptic Victorian steam punk look with found odds and ends. No costume from the era would be complete without a vacuum cleaner hose, goggles, brass compass, monocular, skeleton keys and a leather bomber jacket. Are you a clanker?…or a Darwinist?

This 4-day, 3-night interdisciplinary program will allow students to increase their awareness and knowledge of our physical environment and to develop critical thinking skills and responsible actions to understand and properly care for it. The program covers the following areas: science, mathematics, history-social science, visual and performing arts, English language arts, health and physical education. The Santa Cruz coastal mountains provide a setting for diverse studies including creek research, soil digs, plant and animal identification, a night hike, habitat restoration and more. Escondido’s 5th grade classes have been attending Outdoor Science School since 2006 and have had wonderful experiences.

First day of school. Meeting old friends, making new ones.
