Reach New Heights (RNH) is the flagship initiative of EC3, empowering middle schoolers through outdoor adventure. Guided by the CASEL framework for social-emotional learning (SEL), RNH fosters confidence, leadership, and a strong sense of community while aligning outdoor challenges with SEL principles like self-awareness, relationship skills, and resilience.

​

By focusing on long-term growth and measurable outcomes, RNH equips participants with tools to thrive both in and beyond the classroom, while fostering a lifelong love for the outdoors. This approach embodies EC3’s mission to educate and empower the next generation.
