Science is sweet! 🍫🔬 Our first and second graders had a blast this week as they explored the fascinating world of geology by taking core samples of different candy bars. This activity was designed to prepare them for their outdoor experiential education trip this week that focuses on the rich mining history of the Telluride region. Tomorrow students will take a jeep tour up to Tomboy Mine to continue their #loveofllearning! #telluridemountainschool #telluride #science

Last Friday, upper school Freeride Committee students got some freshies at Silverton! The fresh powder, beautiful scenery, and amazing crew made for an unforgettable day. Annually, in celebration of completing the Free Ride Committee programming, upper school students ski at Silverton Mountain. This celebration allows students to explore new terrain and learn how to ski backcountry safely from professional guides. #skiing #backcountry #silvertonmountain #telluridemountainschool
