About Outdoor Classroom
Each year, the individual Middle School classes and their teachers enjoy several days away from campus in what we call the Outdoor Classrooms. In this stage between childhood and adolescence, Westminster teachers take time away from campus for an educational experience melded with class-bonding time.
