Student Leaders are trained by our staff in positive leadership and team-building skills, child management & teaching techniques, field study curriculum, and NW Outdoor Science School procedures. They create a fun, wholesome environment for students by engaging them in games, songs, skits and other activities. They role model appropriate behavior for students, and help lead them in performing assigned duties, such as cleaning their cabin or the dining hall. Student Leaders also teach many of the field study activities in which students participate.
