REID RANCH EDUCATES THE WHOLE PERSON
Educators—Come Join Us for Summer Seminars!
Philosophers, poets, and saints have reached the same conclusion about true
education: in order to become truly educated, one must school the whole
person. That’s what the Reid Ranch is all about, because here we
don’t just train the intellect.
You already know what ECRI can do for intellectual development. The
program of Reading and Language Arts Instruction which is employed at the
Reid Ranch is second to none. But perhaps you weren’t aware that
a summer experience at this learning facility also contributes to physical
development.
Programs for both educators and students contain numerous physical
activities. Hiking, horseback riding, swimming, games are all part
of the itinerary. Participants can also quietly observe the bounties
of nature which are so prevalent in the rocky mountains which surround the
Reid Ranch. You will have time during your ranch experience to
appreciate the beauty of the area. True, it’s a short
experience. But perhaps a single seminar at the Reid Ranch can be a
beginning, a start toward true education.
There are a number of seminars being sponsored at the Reid Ranch this
coming summer.
