These expeditions are based in the outdoors and teach students technical skills like navigation, camp craft, the basics of backpacking or rock climbing, and much more. As students learn these skills in challenging situations, they also learn the value of teamwork, compassion for others, and the pursuit of excellence.
These trips are generously gifted to St. Mary Interparochial School through the Connelly Foundation and will provide expeditions for future students, as well as Professional Development for our faculty and staff.
