Outdoor Lab
The mission of the Outdoor Education Laboratory (Outdoor Lab) program is to enhance and enrich student learning as an integral part of sixth-grade curricula by providing opportunities for hands-on, experiential, authentic learning in an outdoor setting. In addition, Outdoor Lab fosters opportunities for student growth in environmental stewardship through an enhanced awareness, appreciation, and sense of responsibility for the environment, themselves and others.

Funding and Costs
There are generations of Jeffco students who look back on their Outdoor Lab adventure and say it was one of their best memories of elementary school. Each year, sixth graders will have a chance to explore all of the wonders offered by the Mount Blue Sky and Windy Peak outdoor labs.
Some fundraising will benefit each participating student by crediting their Outdoor Lab account. Check with individual schools for their fundraising activities and student costs.
