cultivate a love of learning.

| KIDS for the BAY TURNS CHILDREN ONTO SCIENCE... |
|
KIDS for the BAY engages students in hands-on environmental science lessons that get them excited about learning. Students use their knowledge and skills to connect with nature in their local watershed and are inspired to take action to improve their environment.
|
| CREATES A LASTING IMPACT... |
|
| We partner with teachers for one year and then provide them with our curriculum guide, ongoing support and the equipment they need to continue KIDS for the BAY programs with each new class of students. This model ensures that our programs are integrated into their school wide curricula. |
