One reason EdVisions Off Campus is an excellent place to be is our focus on individual student led projects. Here you see images of some various project products. Find other examples on our website. It's just one more reason it's good to be a #charterschool! Happy National Charter Schools Week!

On Friday, Brooke's advisory went to Adventure Zone. We played several epic games of laser tag and mini-golf and then ended the afternoon with ice cream at Love Creamery.
May 11-17 is National Public Charter Schools Week. 2025 marks the 30th anniversary of the first Charter Schools Program grant award to support the growth and promise of charter schools. Amazing! EOC staff would like to extend a huge "thank you" to our EOC community for all your support!
Noah's Advisory spent an afternoon at the Duluth Playhouse for a production of "Alice in Wonderland, Jr." It was a fun take on Alice in Wonderland.
Did you ever wonder what the inside of a cave looks like? In South Dakota, we explored TWO! The Jewel Cave has interesting rock formations, and an informative tour. The Big Thunder Gold Mine taught us how gold mining was done. We even panned for our own gold! Learning the process was interesting, and many students found agates and other rocks that were just as interesting as the gold pieces!
Being able to explore and get close to learning was a theme in South Dakota. The South Dakota Air and Space Museum allowed students to fly a jet with a simulator and sit in an actual cockpit! The Reptile Garden had several birds and reptiles that wandered freely! The prairie dogs could be viewed within a bubble, as they only hid from big birds flying overhead.
Wednesday, Michaela's advisory led an all-school meeting. Students learned some ways to be good to their planet through eco-friendly trivia and heard about several eco-friendly non-profits that are doing great things for the environment.
Let's learn a bit more about our South Dakota trip!
Each day in South Dakota was an adventure. There were two main events and lots to see each day. Seeing the sculpting of the mountains to make Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse showed students how models were used to create the final product on the mountains. We got to leave with a piece of Crazy Horse’s mountain! They even had cards that explained what types of rocks were a part of the mountain. By taking a trail, students could see the mountains up close and the carvings that are still on the mountains.
We had a group of students and staff go to South Dakota for an Experiential Ed trip! They visited Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Reptile Gardens, Badlands National Park, and the South Dakota Air and Space Museum. A great time was had by all!
Reminder: No School Thursday May 1st and Friday May 2nd.
Experience Day is tomorrow! We look forward to all the learning we will do together while exploring Gardening, Photography, First to respond, Personal Finance and Sports!
On Wednesday, students participated in Online Presentation Day. There were two presentations and several exhibits showcasing projects our students have been working on this year. The audience was blown away by the depth and breadth of knowledge our students have about their chosen topics! Way to go!
Chris and Gigi took some students to the Guthrie to see Agatha Cristie's "Mouse Trap" at teh Guthrie Theater. It was awesome! Everyone had their theories of who did it, and a couple were close to the answer. But we are now sworn to secrecy...shhhh.
Reminder: No School March 31st -April 4th. Enjoy your break and we will see you on Monday April 7th.
