The Chelsea Detrick Experiential Learning Center works to match students with experiences that align with careers they want to explore, passion areas of interest, and service learning opportunities. We ask students: "What lights you up inside?" Then we work together to take that interest further.
Our elective-credit classes, diverse array of opportunities, and personal assistance are available to ALL students. By providing students with the chance to wonder, design, tinker, collaborate, adapt, and communicate, experiential learning prepares students for the excitement and challenges of their current and future lives. Students can come see us anytime upstairs at WGHS in room 200 to learn more. Follow along with our current opportunities via our newsletters posted at bit.ly/chelseacenternews.
