The Outdoor Lab Schools host an Open House once a year in the fall, when parents of all students are encouraged to visit the sites.
Parents are discouraged from visiting during the week. Being away from home may be a difficult experience for your child and/or you. Your presence on site in the middle of the week could trigger homesickness.
