Clear Lake Education Center connects people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to the natural world. 

School Groups

Clear Lake's education programs meet national science standards but also offer unique opportunities for student engagement and experiential learning, making use of outdoor settings and hands-on activities whenever possible. Check our Calendar (also at the bottom of each page) to see what dates are available for your visit!

For your group's information, we have a packing list that will help them prepare for their visit.
