Beyond the Classroom

There’s more to becoming a well-rounded student than sitting in a classroom: there’s a big beautiful world here to explore.

At Orme you can expect to go outside to enjoy nature’s largest classroom, where 26,000 acres of ranch land and the pristinely beautiful Prescott National Forest beckon you. It is yours to explore. Meander Ash Creek or harvest organic carrots for biology studies, walk to “Up Top” for horsemanship, earn Culture Credits from your weekend off-campus adventures, and attend an evening Coffee House, or a lecture organized and presented by your classmates for International Studies.

Working as a team, whether in sports, drama, the garden, or elsewhere on campus, builds character, hard-work, passion, and dedication.
