Tour of the Island School and Cape Eleuthera Institute

Check out this short tour of the Island School and Cape Eleuthera Institute. According to its website, "The Island School is a mind, body, and spirit journey that takes students away from traditional high school curriculum and invites them to confront authentic challenges. Classes are designed to allow first-hand engagement with the people and environment of The Bahamas. English, math, environmental art, history, applied scientific research, human ecology, and marine ecology are offered; each course focuses on the application of knowledge to real-world problems. SCUBA diving, island exploration, and two kayaking expeditions complement daily morning exercise and campus work that encourages each student to develop leadership and teamwork skills."
The Changing Seas crew worked with experts from the institute while shooting their "Alien Invaders" episode in Eleuthera, Bahamas.
