Spring Grove students in a multi-age outdoor class look at a toad that was found during an animal search assignment Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2020, at Trollskogen Park in Spring Grove. Students and their families at Spring Grove Public Schools who preferred outdoor classrooms were given the option this year in an effort to spread out the student population because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Assistant Superintendent Gina Meinertz said the ability to have outdoor classrooms helps spread out the entire student population. Meinertz said the goal is for students to be outside every week.
