NBL is rooted on three foundations – academic growth, holistic, wellness & community connection -including our natural beings. You have to take risks to learn. Moving our bodies in nature is good for our 🧠, our ♥️& our bodies. (1/2)

Building deep connections w/ other living beings can be profoundly therapeutic. Recognizing that extended school breaks can be challenging for some students, the Nature-Based Learning team hosted a special event to provide support & joy. #animals #NBLSEL #connecttocare @RCSDAMDA
