School Expedition Fees
are paid for by Parent Councils.

A percentage of each session's fee is donated to featured conservation organizations.

I offer a limited number of free sessions each year.

45-minute sessions are $50.00 for up to 25 students 
60-min. Sessions: $65 for up to 25 students
Smaller groups work best as the sessions are highly interactive and students love to participate.

​About each interactive virtual expedition:

1. Teachers get curriculum-aligned sessions that are tailored for each grade level. Higher grades can ask for customized sessions.
2. ​Teachers receive pre-session and post-session resources.
3. Students get to ask and answer questions, and make observations and inferences. ​
4. Students are exposed to real-world scientific methods and tools as they watch conservation scientists in the field.
5. Students connect to nature as they watch animals interact in their habitats and learn how species are adapted to survive and thrive.
6. Students explore how each species helps the earth (ecosystem services, ecological niche).​
7. A portion of registration fees for each class will be donated to a featured conservation or wildlife rescue & rehabilitation organization.
