MESD distributes kits to kids to substitute for popular week of learning in nature
One of the countless casualties of the coronavirus pandemic has been Outdoor School, but the Multnomah Education Service District is creating and distributing Outdoor School kits for students to use as a substitute for the much-loved tradition.
The MESD is handing out 7,500 nature science kits to students across the county who would have gone to Outdoor School this year as an alternative for the cherished nature experience. It s no substitute for Outdoor School, but it s something, said Jeff Gehrig, a science teacher at Deep Creek-Damascus K-8 School.
