Lynne BA vivid old photograph of a small boy, leaping and running joyfully on the beach. He was hyperactive and had been kicked out of school; only nature engaged and soothed him, so his parents took him there often. The boy in the 1907 photograph? Ansel Adams.

the leave-no-child-inside movement could become one of the best ways to challenge other entrenched conceptions—for example, the current, test-centric definition of education reform. Bring unlike-minded people through the doorway to talk about the effect of society’s nature-deficit on child development, and pretty soon they’ll be asking hard questions: Just why have school districts canceled field trips and recess and environmental education? And why doesn’t our school have windows that open and natural light? At a deeper level, when we challenge schools to incorporate place-based learning in the natural world, we will help students realize that school isn’t supposed to be a polite form of incarceration, but a portal to the wider world.
