Terra Nova School
About the Learning Program
Out of the classroom, into the world.
At the Terra Nova School (formerly Jane Goodall Environmental Sciences Academy), students will foster their knowledge, love and respect for the environment while promoting sustainability for future generations. This teacher-led school is located near Maple Lake, Minnesota in the heart of Wright County.
Students don’t have to be taught, they need to learn. This is a distinction. Student-Driven Project Based Learning allows students to take initiative and be responsible for their learning. When a student is interested and actively engaged in their own education they feel empowered, confident, and it builds the foundation for further successes – in and outside of the classroom.
