  • The Outdoor Academy of the Southern Appalachians
    An academic semester school for 10 th graders and select 11 th graders SACS Accredited The Outdoor Academy of the Southern Appalachians Curriculum Guide 2011-2012 “Experiential education for young people, promoting the natural world, and the betterment of human character” Wouldn't It Be Wonderful If I Could Go To A School… Where I engage my whole self: my mind, my body, my spirit? Where I hike, climb, and paddle into the wilderness so that I might know its beauty? Where I learn to be a stronger leader, an active supporter, a better student, and a young teacher? Where I become an active, educated link in the global chain of environmental and social concern? Where I delve into music, theatre, and the fine arts in a free, artistic environment? Where I take on the responsibility of hard work and the accountability of living in community? Where I create meaningful, lifelong friendships? Where I am free to become the self I have always yearned to be? Where I belong? It Would Be Wonderful To Go To A School… Where I can find all of these things while I thrive academically and prepare for my future. ______________________________________ “The people of the desert,” says Laurens van der Post, “speak of two hungers, one small, the other great. The small hunger concerns food for the belly and the other is the great hunger for meaning. The Bushman dances, sings, paints, tells stories; such is the food that feeds this hunger.” Wholehearted learning has been the wisdom of Eagle's Nest for over 80 years.
