What's NEW at the Forest School?


The Kickapoo Valley Forest School team has been working to bring some great informational events to the community this fall. There will be monthly opportunities to learn more about forest schooling online via Zoom and in-person at the KVR.

Join us on the following dates:

Tuesday, September 22, 7:30 pm. Email kvfs@lafarge.k12.wi.us to register and you will be sent a link to the virtual roundtable discussion with the KVFS leadership team on the topic, What is a Forest School? There will be a Q & A to follow a brief presentation.

Saturday, September 26, 10 am - 1 pm at the Kickapoo Valley Reserve. Visit the KVR for a fun self-guided/self-paced tour and opportunity to meet Julia Buckingham, our lead teacher, at a point along the trail. She will be available from 10 am - 1 pm, but you are welcome to complete the tour at any time. Email kvfs@lafarge.k12.wi.us to register and you'll be sent a map and directions. This event is free if you attend during the 10 am - 1 pm time and park at the Visitor Center parking lot (S3661 State Highway 131, La Farge, WI 54639). If you and your family decide to visit another time, there is a self-registration station in the building by the Visitor Center. 

In other news, KVFS has a website in-progress and social media spaces for you to follow. Visit us on Facebook and Instagram @KickapooValleyForestSchool and on Twitter @KVForestSchool We appreciate all the follows, likes, and shares as we work to get the news out about KVFS. We encourage you to send us your email for upcoming newsletters about KVFS and forest schooling.

Finally, we will reveal our new logo this week, and we'd love for you to guess which forest animal we chose! Visit our Facebook page for daily hints and the big reveal later this week. Stay tuned!
