Explorations empowers students to explore their distinct perspectives and experiences and share those gifts with the world. Through this immersive, week-long program at Fort Worden, students are introduced to the world of arts and ideas, creative risk-taking, and personal development. This unique learning environment challenges the mind and body in equal measure.

“Students returning from the Centrum experience demonstrated a stronger inner strength and an internal desire to produce higher quality work in their academic subjects. We also noticed students intentionally seeking out relationships that broke down clique boundaries and forged unexpected bonds. The immediate effects of Centrum were increased student academic resilience and achievement, as well as a healthier classroom community as a result of leadership displayed by Centrum alumni.” – Brenda Buck, Language Arts teacher, First Creek Middle School
