Residential Community
Fellows
reside at Conserve School, a semester school near Land O' Lakes, Wisconsin,
for the 4 semesters of the program. As residential life staff, fellows have
an integral role in maintaining and improving the Conserve School community,
living in houses that include staff apartments and student dorm wings. Each
person in the community contributes to the diversity of the residential
setting, bringing enrichment from individual traits, heritage, skills, and
interests.
Working with house parents, fellows provide supervision, support, mentoring,
and program leadership to the high-school-aged students who participate in
Conserve School's semester program.
2-3 fellows share a well-appointed apartment, including a kitchen, a living
room with gas fireplace, and private bedrooms with 2 1/2 shared baths.
Apartments are furnished with beds, desks and chairs, a dining table and
chairs, and a few pieces of living room furniture. Meals are provided in the
Conserve School dining room when semester student programs are in session.
In addition, fellows have access to a range of recreational equipment and
opportunities on the Conserve School campus and beyond, including:
- Aerobic and strength training equipment
- Climbing wall
- Outdoor equipment (i.e. skis, snowshoes, kayaks, bicycles)
- Groomed winter sports trails
- Hiking trails
- Lakes
