Half of our 10th grade Crews are having a MELS first experience today! Our sophomores applied their HoWL of “taking chances as learners” and headed north to learn some new skills as river kayakers! So proud of their courage, their willingness to try new things and work together as a Crew.

What a beautiful day up at Bear Mountain State Park for our 9th graders. ☀️⛰️Our freshmen crews hiked up different routes with the goal of making it to the top of Bear Mountain for these views together. Like all outdoor adventures at MELS with your Crew it’s also all about the journey. The highs, the lows, trying new things, being uncomfortable and looking out for your Crew while also letting your Crew look out for you! Very proud of our 9th grade Crews and grateful for our adventurous 9th Crew Advisors too!

Crew Adventure at MELS is all about pushing yourself to try new things with the support of your Crew behind you all the way as well as figuring out how to accomplish more than you ever thought possible because you’re with your Crew! This looks like learning how to read maps, cooking for each other, cleaning and taking care of group gear, hiking, problem solving, storytelling and more. There’s nothing like it. There’s nothing more important and there’s nothing better than being outside with your Crew!
