[quote=Anonymous]I genuinely love the Outdoor Lab and think it is an incredible, under-appreciated resource that has been mismanaged by APS in recent years. Having two administrators (one of whom never goes outside with students) and 5-6 support staff is representative of how APS approaches staffing in the school system as a whole. Support staff are important, but they are under-compensated and usually lack the training of teachers. At the Outdoor Lab, assistants have been doing the teaching. There are [b]no teachers on staff[/b] at the Lab (other than those who are chaperoning with their school, and who lack the relevant training in outdoor education).[/quote]
