Hustle for Holistic Education 5K

May 20, 2023

Hustle for Holistic Education 5K - https://runsignup.com/Race/ME/Kennebunkport/HustleforHolisticEducation5K


Background:

School Around us is a 501C(3) Co-Learning community founded in 1970, serving students ages 5 to 13, with the aim of embodying the philosophy of holistic & environmental education. We believe that as learners we develop meaning, identity, and purpose through self-discovery, relationships, a lifelong connection to the environment and accountability to our community.


The Hustle for Holistic Education will be an opportunity for the school community, extended family and friends and the surrounding community to come together to support lifelong learning, a love for the outdoors and holistic education. We anticipate upwards of 100 participants to support our mission.
