photoAbout OASES

is a conference designed for school groups -- small delegations of ninth grade students, accompanied by a faculty or parent advisor.  Delegations from schools throughout the Southeast are invited to travel to The Outdoor Academy, a one-semester boarding school located in the mountains of Western North Carolina, to participate in this three-day environmental leadership conference. 

The conference will run from Wednesday, April 23 through Friday, April 25, 2008, so participants will need to forgo their regular classes on these days in order to experience this exceptional learning opportunity. 

The conference cost is only $30 for students, and is free for faculty or parent advisors. Food and lodging are provided for all participants and advisors. 

Each delegation should consist of up to 6 students, and up to 2 faculty or parent advisors.
