Living Classrooms

What makes Chi Chi’s unique and successful is the use of the living classroom campus to provide our students with a hands-on educational experience:

  • Golf:  Students learn core values and life lessons seamlessly through golf with First Tee - Clearwater curriculum.
  • Native Bird Boxes: Students along with volunteers, built 22 bird boxes to place on the 170-acre campus.  Students go on the course to help monitor the boxes as a part of their science curriculum.
  • Horticulture: Students maintain gardens on campus with a volunteer who works with each class on growing vegetables that the students can later pick and eat.
  • Shadow Program: Students spend time with adults in every department of the Golf Club and Foundation, and see how basic educational skills like math and reading are used on an everyday basis.
