An outdoor classroom is creating a lot of excitement at Badger High School as the warmer weather is finally making an appearance. Senior Matthew Geils was the only student this year in Leadership Dynamics (LD) for Seniors, a class that is a rigorous strategic planning and community organizing program. He took LD as an independent study under Ms. Emily Koltz who has been involved with other aspects of the Badger Leadership Dynamics program for a few years.
