Adventures in Expeditionary Learning

Our children are students at Two Rivers Community School (TRCS), a North Carolina public charter school. Established only five years ago, to our eyes, this innovative, ambitious academic experiment has already delivered many amazing results. At TRCS, our kids and some 250 others are enjoying a rare learning curriculum uniquely integrating a pioneering expeditionary learning approach with advanced brain-compatible instructional strategies also known as educational kinesiology or Brain Gym.

Focused on teamwork, community and the pursuit of shared academic and character-improvement goals, TRCS students and faculty-members are contributing to society by learning more everyday about the world, their community and themselves as individuals. Despite the excellence in faculty and curriculum development, despite the great promises of current students and those to come, the school’s economic challenges are great. We and other parents whose social and financial contributions give TRCS its lifeblood are intent on keeping the school alive, and if at all possible, soaring to new heights.

Those interested in worthwhile charitable causes are encouraged to learn more about TRCS, as well as Expeditionary Learning Schools Outward Bound (ELS), a national, non-profit organization. More information on ELS is available by visiting their website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed.
