Dexter 2003 Overnight Trip
 
A message the teachers hope extends back into the classroom!
 

 
On September 25th and 26th ACSA students, staff, and parent volunteers went on an overnight camping trip to Dexter. The Dexter camp is 8 miles North of Nome. At the camp students participated in a wide variety of activities led by community members, parents, and teachers. Students of ACSA have written summaries of each activity as well as captions for the photos shown in the links below. We hope you enjoy seeing some of the activities they were involved in during the camp.
