2025
Upper Elementary students will participate in our Snowsports Program at Mohawk Mountain in Cornwall, CT. Skiing and snowboarding lessons provide the opportunity for students to gain further understanding and control of their fundamental skills and safety etiquette while in a winter alpine environment. Our PE Specialist and PSIA Alpine Level 1 Instructor, Sam Cochrane, will supervise the program along with the support of the students' guide Kate.
Our Snowsports Program will once again include a weekly one-hour skiing or snowboarding lesson followed by an opportunity to further practice with our supervisor and chaperones, until 5:15pm.
It will run a total of six (6) weeks on Tuesdays: January 7, 14, 21, 28, February 4, 11 (with the predesignated make-up dates of Feb 25 and March 4).
