We will be leaving school early at 8:30 in order to make it to our program on the west side by 9. The program is from 9-12. Students will return to school by 12:30 for a late lunch.

Please bring a warm layer, and a backpack with water, snacks and a sack lunch.

Program Description:

Students practice being naturalists by making observations and comparing natural communities and different ecosystems as they go on a 2-mile hike through Pogonip Open Space Preserve. Thinking about nature as a system, physically connecting these ecosystems by walking through them and collecting data to compare them, help students better understand the environment.
