Expeditions
Camping, Kayaking & Bonding with Friends in the Great Outdoors
"I have no doubt that my middle school daughter will be prepared for high school. But more importantly, I believe she will be prepared for life! That's priceless." Synapse Parent
A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience for Middle Schoolers
Every spring, Synapse Middle School students embark in a weeklong, grade-specific expedition with faculty. Expeditions have both been designed to create a social and emotional growth opportunity for students outside of their home and school environments, and to create a rich, authentic learning experience that includes activities that may otherwise not be available to students outside of the trip. Spending time outside the classroom on these fantastic adventures with their teachers helps students to navigate their emotions, recognize patterns, and exercise optimism.
Our 5th grade class explores the Channel Islands, 6th graders head to Joshua Tree, the 7th grade class ventures through national parks in Utah, and our 8th graders travel all the way to Alaska!
