Field Studies
Our students learn both in and out of the classroom through our weekly Field Studies, overnight camping trips, workshops, and our Internship program.
The Washington area is incredibly rich in historical, cultural, and environmental resources. Here is a partial listing of Field Studies we have participated in over the last few years, taking advantage of our available resources:
A student tests the water for water quality at Little Seneca Creek for a field study on environmental issues
