I've taught at FBRA for 13 years so I know better than almost anyone about our amazing program. Rather than a surface level intro to outdoor education, ours is a deep dive resulting in deep learning and achievement of our mission: to build character and integrity for a lifetime of learning, service, and leadership.

I have been very impressed with all the staff - teachers, councelors,...
