PBS’ American Graduate Day featured NYC Outward Bound Schools’ Crew program as a model for developing strong adult-student relationships. Crew Advisor Craig Dorsi and student Nubia Blake of our Channel View School for Research were featured alongside NYCOBS alum Meg Riordan of our partner in teaching, Expeditionary Learning.
OutdoorFest reviewed our unique climbing wall, which is the tallest in the City, includes 5 routes, and helps support free climbing for students who attend our network of public schools.
New York City Schools Chancellor paid our Marsh Avenue Expeditionary Learning School a visit on the first day of school. She was particularly impressed by Marsh’s use of Crew, noting that it provides “academic, social and emotional support in a nurturing environment.”
