Wilderness Wonders-Eagle Sky Adventure
It’s nearly impossible to capture the beauty and benefit of our all-school, three-day, Wilderness Wonders retreat at Eagle Sky.
In our present culture of distraction, too much screen time, diminished family and friend relationships, this experience is essential. Authentic relationship growth is KEY for the good of students, parents, and staff! We experienced our Creator in nature and worship times, friendships grew deeper and new ones formed. Peace, unity, laughter, and adventure filled our days!
Along with relationship growth, student learning and skill advancement is powerfully impactful.
The pre-K through sixth grade students….
- Dissected owl pellets to find and identify bones of animals
- Played games and learned about weather and cloud types
- Observed and learned about elk, bison, longhorns, and goats
- Engaged in collaborative team-building games
- Participated in recreational activities including a slingshot, bb-rifle range, and petting zoo
Our seventh through twelfth graders…
- Overcame fears on a high ropes course
- Controlled and guided water vessels
- Participated in archery
- Learned about soil
- Tasted fresh honey from the comb and grew in pollinator knowledge
All of our students…
- Experienced lake adventures with inflatable obstacle courses, teeter totter, and water Saturn
- Slid down and launched from the Screaming Eagle Water Slide
- Enjoyed recreation activities including, human foosball, whiffle ball, kickball, gaga ball, swimming, basketball, beach swings, soccer, and sand volleyball
We are so thankful to Eagle Sky for hosting such a beneficial, unifying experience for our Prodigy family. Thank you to our families who came and to those who trusted us with their children. Thank you to Ms. Kimberly Smith, who demonstrates love and attention in organizing the details.

Fire Safety Month Tips
- Have working smoke alarms in your home
- Change batteries in those smoke alarms
- Establish a family safety plan of what to do incase of a fire or emergency in your home-designate a “safe” meeting place. (ex. Swing set, etc.)
- Practice fire drills at home with your family
We pray we never have to use these items but being prepared is always best. We had a campus safety drill on October 5th. Our students and staff did a great job!
