Program Overview: The Monday Cohort is our established Expedition Academy group for returning students who have already completed at least one year of Expedition Academy & a Summer Capstone. This close-knit cohort continues building on the skills, relationships, and confidence developed during previous years while taking on greater independence, leadership, and personal responsibility.
Throughout the year, students continue strengthening healthy habits, expanding life skills, and preparing for increasingly challenging adventures. As returning participants, they play an active role in supporting one another, mentoring peers, and working toward meaningful personal goals.
Students will:
Build greater independence in daily living and decision-making
Strengthen healthy habits related to food, fitness, technology, and time management
Continue developing emotional regulation and challenge-zone strategies
Practice adaptive first aid and CPR
Develop leadership, teamwork, and communication skills
Plan, prepare for, and complete a summer capstone adventure
Receive individualized coaching and mentorship throughout the year
What a Typical Day Looks Like: We begin the day at Gladstone 24 Hour Fitness with a group workout, followed by showers and getting ready for the day. We then head to lunch where students practice ordering meals, trying new foods, and making healthy choices. In the afternoon, we meet at the local library for hands-on lessons, discussions, and activities centered on that week's topic.
Fall Term Focus: The fall term emphasizes strengthening the core habits that support long-term success. Students continue building independence through healthy routines, self-awareness, executive functioning, technology management, fitness, nutrition, and daily living skills while setting personal goals for the year ahead.
