Fourth Graders Connect With Nature at Frost Valley Adventure
Last week, Berkeley Carroll fourth graders embarked on the second annual overnight trip to Frost Valley Camp in the Catskill Mountains—and made our community proud every step of the way. Full of adventure, discovery, laughter, and friendship, the experience gave students a chance to connect with nature while building resilience, independence, and teamwork.
