Jane Goodall Environmental Sciences Academy

Out of the classroom, into the world.

WE ARE A FREE MINNESOTA PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 6 – 12

At the 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.

GaGa ball is a favorite of many JGESA students when they have activity time up on the hill - but that GaGa pit doesn't belong to JGESA, it's part of our lease with our current landlord. This year on Give to the Max day we are looking for donations to purchase a new portable gaga pit that will allow us to have an additional pit near the cabins this year and take the pit with us to the new campus next year so we can continue to offer students one of their favorite outdoor activities. If we reach our strech goal we'd like to install outdoor mats under the pit, making for a nicer, safer playing surface and less mess in wet weather.
