A big THANK YOU to our amazing students, staff, parents and valley community for making the Blue Bell Cafe a success.

The first Blue Bell Cafe since 2008 brought back the spirit and excitement of the original event. The Methow Valley Community School kids prepared and served the food, made the art for the auction and entertained with an original song.

Thanks to Terry Hunt for this sweet video about the Blue Bell.

experiential education, the one thing that is
unassailably true is that you can't
understand it by defining it, you must do it."
