Our daily curriculum for grades 1-8 offers a balanced study of the main branches of science including biology, health, space, electricity, simple chemistry, physical, weather, and zoology. Our studies and labs in natural and earth sciences are inquiry-based and center largely on environmental, ecological, and climate themes. For enrichment purposes, our students are actively involved in creating and maintaining several on-site, science-based, habitats for:
- The Eastern Bluebird– funded by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department
- The Monarch Butterfly– in participation with the University of Kansas Monarch
Watch Program
- The Eastern Swallowtail Butterfly- new as of 2022
-
The Snowshoe Hare- often sighted in our Boreal Forest
-
Eastern Cottontail Rabbit – now an endangered species in New Hampshire
Other Science enrichment programs include:
-
Trout in the Classroom project (2017) sponsored by the State of New Hampshire Fish and Wildlife Department.
-
Aquaponics in the Classroom– training provided by the Herring Gut Learning Center, Port Clyde, Maine
