BYDS is adding an exciting new feature for our students! We are creating an expansive outdoor education space to enhance both our Early Childhood and Elementary curricula: STEAM, community, water play, music, art, drama, and more. 
“I will understand problem solving, self exploration, decision making, number relationships, structures, complex vocabulary, healthy living, cause and effect, creativity, imaginative thinking and my natural world when I am bigger, because I play and learn outside today.” – Unknown
This space has been planned to include a variety of learning media. These areas each have their own educational purpose in our curricula: Artists Alley, Water Discovery, Climb and Balance, STEAM, Melodies & Make Believe, and an Amphitheater.
We have already broken ground on our Water Discovery feature and this should be ready by Summer Camp 2019 starting on June 5th! For more information on our summer camp, click here.
