Students and teachers in participating schools have the opportunity to actively and significantly participate in a real-world rare species conservation programs. Join us in our work to protect these amazing species here in Massachusetts!
At each participating school, our biologist-educators provide high quality classroom presentations and field trips built around the students’ participation in our native turtle headstarting programs. Together, we learn about wildlife conservation, wetland ecology, and landscape history, focusing on inquiry-based skills at the center of the Next Generation Science Standards. All of our instructors have extensive experience working as field biologists with these turtles as well as experience at leading educational enrichment programs for students from elementary grades through high school.
