The Outdoor Education Program creates stimulating, hands-on learning opportunities in a natural setting that foster a deep appreciation for science and conservation while stimulating social-emotional development. Our interactive lessons provide a deeper and richer educational experience than those typically offered in an indoor classroom environment. Our goal is to promote outdoor education and social-emotional learning in a safe, welcoming environment that is new to our students.

We provide students and visitors the opportunity to learn about a wide range of educational topics in our expansive Outdoor Education Center. Our curriculum is based on both the nationally recognized Next Generation Science Standards and Common Core standards, and scales by grade level for students in 2nd through 8th grade.
