At GUS, we do education differently. Our place-based, inquiry-based approach creates authentic learning opportunities, like this trip to Starbucks, that nurture their natural sense of curiosity. Sometimes these explorations take us to the beach, our on the nature trail, or sometimes they take is to a local coffee shop as students question, make meaning, and get inspired.

Instead, teachers use field trips as a way for our students to engage in real-world work and experiences and to see their learning come alive while building community and getting to know each other better. The much-anticipated 8th grade New York City Trip is a great example of this idea in action.
