Student Leadership Retreat
In line with our mission of Live, Learn, Lead, at YIS we believe leadership can be learned. What is leadership, and what are the practices that make someone a good leader?
Expeditions at YIS
Adventurous wilderness expeditions create authentic opportunities for students to experience challenges and develop knowledge, skills and conceptual understandings that transfer to school, community and family life.
Learning at YIS
Learning changes our thinking and behaviors, enabling us to acquire skills, knowledge and attitudes while providing a catalyst for creativity, critical thinking and independent reasoning.
