Tommy Douglas Collegiate's Off the Grid program is a half-day, full-year learning experience that takes students on an integrative learning adventure. This program is intended for Grade 9 students who are interested in such topics as climate change, social justice and youth empowerment to promote change in Saskatchewan communities. The program connects in-class learning with outdoor expeditions while we canoe, hike, ski, bike and bus around Saskatoon and the province to explore what Saskatchewan has to offer. Students connect with local farmers, beekeepers, university professors and environmental organizations to better understand the challenges we face and the resources available to us to initiate meaningful environmental change. This course appeals to students who are looking to challenge themselves, make new friends and enjoy experiencing life outside the box as they gain insight into the topics of complex systems that govern all life through a hands-on learning style.
