Each summer, Stone Ridge Environmental Sciences teacher Casey Robertson brings her classroom outdoors for Stone Ridge’s 3-week Environmental Field Studies program.
Any high schoolers looking to spend some time outside learning about the environment, wildlife, and habitats can apply for this Summer CampUs experience. In this 3-week lab and field studies based course, students conduct hands-on activities to look at wildlife species populations, stream water quality, soil analysis, and more! Some past activities have included banding baby ospreys, restoring wetlands, creating track plates, setting wildlife cameras, and tracking down box turtles with GPS! No previous biology or environmental science experience required – all it takes is an enthusiasm for life and an appreciation of the natural world!
