Nebo School authorities say their outdoor school has. "developed into one of Utah's largest and best used outdoor education projects." Located 14 miles northeast of Springville along the western edge of the Wasatch Mountains, the center serves some 2,000 elementary and secondary students yearly. Two dormitories, a service lodge and independent utilities help to accommodate the up to 60 students and six staff members for each session vhich for elementary students lasts five days. Officials at the outdoor school say one of the factors which contributes to the overall success of the Shadow Mountain summer learning experience is the wide variety of biological subject matter available in the area. The center is 7,500 feet above sea level where maple, oak, spruce and aspen forests complement flower covered meadows. Students often see elk, deer, bobcats and many other animals. Several streams in the area abound with various waterlife also. The area offers opportunity for the students to study first-han- d geology and even astronomy because of the high altitude and unpolluted skies. Sterling R, Swenson is director of the school. He said he feels that personal contact with their environment is important for young students. Many of these children have not had an extended opportunity to be in close contact with their natural en- vironment; therefore, developing student awareness and sensitivity toward nature is one of our primary objectives. "We also hope to train students in the proper maintenance and improvement of this valuable heritage." He said to achieve these objectives, a DAVID HANSEN wide spectrum of hands-o- n expenences are employed.
