CRS Wetlands Laboratory
Student scientists at Charles River School are fortunate to have the opportunity to study a vernal pool on campus in our Wetlands Laboratory. Complete with paths through the woods, water sampling platforms, and a council circle for class meetings, students engage with an unique environment that allows them to study flora and fauna at all levels of science classes. Whether observing trees throughout the seasons or building and placing salamander boards for a citizen science project, the Wetlands Laboratory is used at all times of the year for integrated curriculum that fosters curiosity about a unique environment in our own backyard.
