What REALMS is about

What is REALMS

REALMS is a Hands On Learning Charter School in Central Oregon. We are very different from most schools because we normally do not believe in learning by textbooks and homework (though we do have some). Our purpose is to foster scholarship, strengthen community, and inspire stewardship through active learning.

Here we have a mission, a mission to challenge each other to investigate, understand, and become stewards of the human and natural world around us.

Our Mission

Our Mission

Our mission is to help the process of restoration for Tumalo Creek. Meaning what we did to help restore Tumalo after the Bridge Creek fire. Since the fire was so devastating loggers came and took all of the trees away including the trees that were in the banks. After that there was nothing left. People finally realized that what we are doing to the creek is wrong so they started to fix it. They thought that it would be nice for the schools to get involved and that’s where we come in.

The 8th grade classes started to get really involved. We replanted trees and most of the riparian vegetation along the side of the creek along with a couple other schools.

Closing Circle Week 2


    As soon we got back we got in a standing circle. As we disgust about our successful day with Math. As we listened to Dante, Karen and Mr. Beck answer our comments and questions, we gave an appreciation on something we all did well or how someone helped you, and how did this make your day better. I got an appreciation because I gave someone my water. This made me feel good about my self and makes me want to do it more. Doing this makes everyone enjoy there day. When people are happy it makes the day fun, as it flows like water. At the end we gather our things and headed for the gear to load on the bus and head back to Realms.
