The Campaign for Boyhood

Outdoor Commons

For a campus planned with magnificent buildings, our access to natural spaces today is very limited. We need this space because it will enable us to expand our curriculum-based opportunities for recreation and learning. We need this space because getting our boys outside is essential for their well-being. A holistic education must include time in nature.

The Campaign for Boyhood will transform the southern edge of campus.

Boys, specifically, need time to learn, play, climb, explore, recharge, and connect with the wonders of nature. This intentional time is essential to boys’ physical and mental health as well as their overall development. Unfortunately, global trends show that time in nature for children is dwindling. However, it is no surprise that PDS has intentionally researched ideas to rebuke this unsettling trend and has created a unique educational experience for the well-being of their boys.

I am excited to see PDS’ plans for an outdoor space come to fruition and am so thankful for PDS’ ongoing commitment to meet the needs and interests of every boy.”
