Come to terms with nature

Now I truly believe that we in this generation must come to terms with nature, and I think we're challenged, as mankind has never been challenged before, to prove our maturity and our mastery, not of nature but of ourselves. — Rachel Carson

Field trip

I was very impressed with how well everything was organized from the minute our bus arrived until we all waved good-bye to each other. The staff engaged the students interactively and at an appropriate level. The program had to do with living things using their senses. Upon returning from the field trip, I asked students what they liked best and what they learned; I don't think that they left out a single detail. They were definitely able to tell their families about their wonderful learning experience outside the classroom, both inside and outside at the Leslie Science and Nature Center. - Robbi Peterson
