Estuary EDventures Outreach

Let us bring the estuary to you! Estuary EDventures’ outreach programs deliver interactive marine science labs and important conservation messages to students across the bay. Our educators visit your classroom to guide students through a hands-on, marine science lab of your choice. Our labs are designed to teach basic science principles and leave students empowered to act as environmental stewards.

School Outreach

Cost: $100 per program

Water Quality

Water Quality

Students learn about water quality parameters used to measure the health of our local waters. They use scientific tools to test water samples and collect data, participating in a worldwide citizen science project. This lab is for 6th-12th.
