Upcoming Events
Come join our Living History Showcase and check out our other yearly offerings!
While our drop off outdoor classes are the core of our school we believe that life is better when we get to celebrate our homeschool community! Our yearly events include Homeschool Field Day, Science Fair, and Living History Showcase. The Idaho Outdoor School is also proud to offer monthly community building meet ups for everyone in the homeschool world of Idaho’s Treasure Valley. Looking forward to adding more events to our roster- think family camping trip, outdoor clothing and gear swap, homeschool conferences!
NOVEMBER MEET UP: Clothing Swap!!
November Clothing/Shoe/Toy Swap!
This has been on my mind for awhile and when our teacher Ms. Cody brought it up, I realized it doesn’t have to be perfect, but it does need to happen!
Bring your well cared for clothes, shoes, toys. Label them with post its or masking tape with the size so that it’s visible from the outside. Open the trunk of your car and out with the old in with the new! Most of us have stuff that our kids have out grown laying around the house and with colder weather approaching this is an excellent way to get some used gear for your kids. Anything that you don’t get rid of and don’t want, I’m happy to take to a donation center for everyone.
After swapping clothes, we will explore the new park (!!) at Expo Idaho. I’ll also have card crafting supplies to make Christmas cards for our December event.
Let me know if you have any questions!
DECEMBER MEET UP!
Join us in spreading some holiday cheer as we deliver Christmas cards sing Christmas carols at a rehabilitation facility for those that will be there this holiday season!
Location details to be announced early November!
October Community Meet Up
Come join us for a hike off the road that leads to Bogus Basin!
No need to be a student in our classes, we just like to get together with other homeschoolers!
This is a 2.8 mile loop, moderate hike, you are welcome to turn back if your kids want a shorter hike. Parking is very limited so you may have to park on the side of the road. Bring water and snacks and come hang with us!
Best way to get directions is to type Snowshoe Hare Loop via Ponderosa Pine Overlook into Alltrails.
Field Day
Homeschool Field Day is the best way to kick off the start of the school year! Team races and challenges with tie dye, snowcones and a giant water balloon fight!
August Community Meet Up
Come give back to the community and meet other homeschoolers together! We will have trashbags and gloves to share as we clean up the Nampa Greenbelt after a season of heavy use.
July Community Meet Up
Join us for a day of fun in the sun as we splash in the water and play at the park! We will bring some games and bubbles to share with everyone, hope to see you there!
No need to RSVP, just show up and enjoy our time together!
