Some challenges for creating an OUTDOOR CLASSROOM.

• “We can’t afford to build an outdoor classroom. It will cost at least $10,000 and the economy is too weak to support such an endeavor.”

•“It’s too tough to build an outdoor classroom. There are an endless list of problems in building a classroom outside.”

•“We shouldn’t build a classroom that can’t be used every day of the year.”

•“Just have the students sit on the lawn or on an unused concrete slab such as a parking lot or loading dock.”

A POSITIVE ATTITUDE

“Some people see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say why not?”

“There are risks and costs to a program of action, but they are far less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction.”

“The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need citizens who can dream of things that never were. “
