Going to this school has changed my life, the experiences I've had here have helped me grow so much a person. More than anything, the community at Bosque is wonderful, there is so much emphasis on collaboration and connection. I truly can't imagine a school that would have been a better fit for me.

Located alongside the Rio Grande bosque on a gorgeous campus, the school emphasizes field science through activities like tracking and studying porcupines. Learning is hands-on and often outdoors.
