SCHOOL PROGRAMS
Learn how choices we make today can ensure a healthier future in programs designed by teachers to meet Rhode island educational standards. In addition to being educational, classes are stimulating, fun, and offer ‘hands-on‘ experience to meet a variety of age-group and audience requirements. Each program works individually or as part of a larger curriculum series. Through direct instruction, discussions, games, science experiments, art projects, field work and much more, students explore issues relevant to their lives.
