School Programs
IslandWood operates as a year-round educational facility staffed with experienced, full-time faculty. During the school year, IslandWood provides a 4 day residential School Overnight Program for 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students in the Puget Sound region. In the spring, IslandWood also offers Bainbridge school groups short day programs for grades pre-K through 3rd.
Students participate in experiential and project-based fieldwork that appeals to many different learning styles and interests. Using the cultural and natural environment as a context, our programs integrate scientific inquiry, technology and the arts. Students spend a majority of their time participating in outdoor field study projects. They also take advantage of state-of-the-art facilities such as multiple learning studios, a fenced garden classroom and greenhouse, "The Living Machine," teams course, and remote field structures. During meals and free time, students engage in activities that promote a sense of community through family-style dining, evening programs, and recreational activities.
In the summers IslandWood offers camp programs for children and families. We welcome school groups from year-round schools to participate in these programs.
