Performance Academies fifth graders, teachers, parents and school leaders from our schools across Ohio are having a blast this week at our annual outdoor learning experience at Camp Kern. Today we woke up to a beautiful fall morning, enjoyed French toast and bacon for breakfast, took some amazing hikes, and traveled back in time to visit a one room school house, a blacksmith shop, and more! We saw turtle shells and learned about animals in Ohio, and we got to ring the dinner bell! We had a fun lunch, played lots of games, and headed out for more hiking, canoeing, and outdoor learning experiences before heading back to our cabins!

All Performance Academy Schools will continue with online learning through the end of the school year, following Governor Dewine’s order.
