Discovery inspires explorers

Not all learning requires a classroom setting.

As we all know, children learn by doing. They remember what they have personally experienced. In addition, concept development is optimized through active, exploratory experiences. Field trips can be a type of unstructured learning that gets children away from the traditional classroom setting and into a new mode of learning. Field trips not only expand children's learning and experiences by providing them with hands-on experiences, they also increase children's knowledge and understanding of the world in which they live.

The Cross Keys Foundation is dedicated to providing financial support so our our young people have every opportunity to broaden their education beyond the school house walls.

You can help the Foundation's efforts by becoming a field trip site, volunteering your time to chaperon on a field trip or donating to our Events fund.
