It was a fun, hands-on learning experience that showcased their innovation, teamwork, and perseverance.

This week started two of our three-day, 7th grade kayaking trip in the back bay. Students spent the day at the Bayside Center, where they explored local ecosystems and learned about coastal habitats, biodiversity, food webs, and environmental conservation through a guided BayCats nature tour. This hands-on experience connected directly to our 7th grade science curriculum while providing opportunities for teamwork, physical activity, and a deeper appreciation for the natural resources that make our community special.
