School Programs
The Environmental Center offers a series of programs for schools to connect students to the Chesapeake Bay. Each and every program includes outdoor and hands-on activities to better understand our ecosystems. Courses that include data collection utilize technology that is used by hydrologists, biologists, chemists, and foresters when collecting data.
Our programs are designed to leave students curious, excited, and capable. Above all, our programs are meant to connect students to our natural environments.
Grade Levels
Our programs are designed for grade levels K - 12. Each program has been carefully created to encourage creativity, foster curiosity, and nurture a connection to nature.
Unless otherwise requested, each class includes a 20-minute informative, interactive presentation, a 20-minute hands-on activity, and a 20-minute outdoor excursion. Customized programming is available with a 3-week notice. Key scientific concepts will be included along with vocabulary and activities that align with your curriculum.
