Building Character with Martial Arts. The Black Belt Leadership Academy has a rich history that spans more than ten years, during which it has been pivotal in aiding students to sharpen their concentration, bolster their power, and enhance their self-assurance through exceptional martial arts instruction. Our branch in Wauwatosa is a welcoming space that respects and includes students of every kind, regardless of whether they're novices or seasoned martial artists. Each class that we provide is meticulously planned to challenge students at a personal level, while also creating a positive and rewarding ambiance. This individualized approach guarantees that all our students feel recognized and motivated, which leads to a more successful learning journey. At our academy, we're committed to fostering an environment that brings out the best in each student. Our classes aim to not merely impart martial arts techniques but also to instill qualities such as discipline, respect, and resilience. We are firm believers that the values learned at our academy extend beyond the training hall and will benefit our students in all their future pursuits.

Main Street Conservatory of Dance is proud to be a part of the Marshfield community since 1998. Established by Heather Conrad, a Marshfield native, the school has been providing a strong technical dance education to students of all levels, ages 3 to adult. Our professional staff emphasizes a safe and nurturing environment, creating a positive experience for all of our students. Our goal is to empower our students to gain self-confidence, develop discipline, respect and organization, and foster a life-long appreciation for dance.

At ENH, we strive to provide quality outdoor education experiences for San Francisco and Monterey Bay Area students that will last a lifetime. We partner with over 100 schools annually, and since our founding in 1979 we have served more than 215,000 students. Each year, over 7,000 students participate in 3 to 5-day programs at our Sempervirens and Pigeon Point sites, engaging in unplugged, place-based lessons that spark their interest in science and environmental stewardship. We also focus on social emotional learning, environmental literacy, health, and the arts, providing a positive and inclusive environment where students can build relationships with their peers and teachers while developing their sense of responsibility towards the environment. Through our waste reduction activities, such as composting and mock town hall meetings, students learn how to be good stewards of the earth.
