In late May, the Jack Creek Preserve Foundation welcomed Ophir Elementary School’s fourth-graders for a day of immersive, hands-on learning at the nature preserve between Big Sky and the Madison Valley.
The visit, funded by the Moonlight Community Foundation, marked the possibility of an ongoing collaboration between JCPF, the Big Sky School District and MCF. JCPF leaders hope it can become an annual opportunity for local Big Sky kids to experience the unique, experiential curriculum that the preserve can offer.
