The Ecology School’s president and CEO, Drew Dumsch, is a Michigan native who was smitten by hiking and birding when he was young. A chance to work for the Stone Environmental School brought him to Maine, and that’s where he fell in love with teaching. Founded in 1998, the Ecology School has given thousands of kids hands-on experience learning about the outdoors. Right now, the school is in the process of an $14.1 million expansion on an old farm in Saco.
