Academic Outreach For Teachers

For Your Students:

Our programs are tailored to meet the needs of you and your students.  You may choose to use our services in the form of a field trip, in-school visitation, or as assistance in an after-school program.
 
We use Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) when planning each program.

Our services are FREE!

Another opportunity for your students is Lockerly Arboretum.  They offer free of charge field trips to Lockerly and the Worley Center (Putnam County) and much more.  Please visit their web site to find out more!
