Many of our students are AT-Risk/Title 1 students, whose families can't afford to pay for programs. The public schools are also short with money and are not always allowed to spend on extra programs. Having a free, nature based STEM program is a wonderful addition that creates the hands-on experience that most of the public school system curriculum lacks. This experience was an engaging time for all!

What Educators Are Saying
Teachers, administrators, and parents share how natureβbased STEM has transformed their students' learning.
Our demographic is often inside smaller domiciles (like apartments) or come from families where both parents have full-time jobs, and they may not have access to outdoor spaces. Exposure to Nature is both grounding and stimulating for them.
