OUTDOOR EDUCATION
At our Outdoor Academy, learning comes alive through nature-based adventures and hands-on experiences. With our unique blend of a STEM Academy and Leadership Academy, students don’t just study science, they explore it. They don’t just talk about leadership, they practice it.
Through engaging, real-world lessons in the outdoors, students build critical thinking skills, creativity, and confidence. Whether they’re designing experiments in the forest, solving engineering challenges, or leading team activities, every day is an opportunity to grow, discover, and lead.
SCIENCE ACADEMY
Our STEM Academy offers students the opportunity to engage in hands-on science classes conducted in an outdoor environment. Our curriculum is designed in alignment with Alabama State Standards, ensuring we meet all educational requirements.
LEADERSHIP ACADEMY
Our Leadership Academy equips students with essential team-building skills while fostering the development of positive relationships among peers. The curriculum combines thoughtful lessons with engaging outdoor activities, creating a dynamic learning environment.
Maranatha’s Outdoor Education Program offers students an unforgettable, nature-based learning adventure where curiosity, collaboration, and character come to life. Through engaging, hands-on classes where students explore ecosystems, study groundwater systems, and even learn campfire cooking, students connect deeply with God’s creation while developing real-world skills and a spirit of adventure. Grounded in Bible-based teaching, each experience encourages students to see the wonder of the natural world and understand their role in caring for it. Along the way, they build resilience, form lasting friendships, and grow in both confidence and faith, all in a fun, supportive outdoor environment.
