Welcome to full school Salmon-pa-looza 2026! This week, Seattle is our second classroom and salmon is life!
Why?
There are so many disparate interests amongst our students, so unifying our intensive means pooling our resources for a very special term transition.
Our immersive experiences will take us outdoors, seaside, to the kitchen, and engaging with Coast Salish practices. Students will build upon the introduction to salmon habitat restoration from Term 1 Killer Whale Conservation. We will dig deeper into how salmon are and have always been central to indigenous PNW cultures to counterbalance discussions of colonialism’s violent seizure of land and economic destruction. And each student will create their own woven works inspired by and in appreciation for indigenous artistry. All teachers are collaborating, and student inquiry will impact the final schedule for the week!
The guarantees:
Good walking shoes- major bonus for waterproof or resistant.
