Dr George Donaldson of Northern Illinois University evaluated the program as a strong example of cooperative community involvement and noted plans for a school board magazine article. The curriculum emphasized environmental studies ecology nature sensitivity water study outdoor art physical education and conservation with staff and volunteers sharing duties at the 120 acre site meals in the dining hall and evening programs including storytelling films square dancing and night hikes. Students chose study areas with water study offering deeper courses while other areas provided substantial exposure.
