We are so excited about our STEM Outdoor Innovation Lab (SOIL) program. SOIL is a blend of STEM curriculum development, teacher professional development, student field experiences, and the development of the 21st century outdoor school. This spring students and teachers from nine schools spent one week with PAST staff at Kelleys Island and community subject experts, exploring opportunities to take back to their own schools
