Old Oak Outdoor Learning Center DedicationPosted on: Thursday, September 16, 2010For more than 40 years, Dare Elementary School children, parents and teachers have gathered, played and learned under the branches of the enormous live oak tree that graces the entry to the school.

In 2009, Kathryn Callaway, a second grade teacher and Earth Kids Leader at Dare, applied for and received a Lowes' Outdoor Education Grant. With help from volunteers, Earth Kids’, Dare PTA and staff members, the Old Oak Outdoor Learning Center has become a reality complete with benches, picnic tables, planters, bird feeders, bird bath and a birdhouse.
