Project Cougars Outside provides the students of Lynn Community Middle School with hands-on, enriched experiences to foster a love of learning, connections to New Mexico histories, and wellness experiences in our beautiful outdoors. Cougars Outside will create access to students by taking place during the school day breaking down barriers of cost, time, and transportation all while supporting the learning taking place in the classroom. This school year provides a unique opportunity with enrichment days built in so students won’t miss instruction. As a community school, this project is a great additional learning support offered to our students and families.
