HANDS ON NATURE

Hands On Nature is a hands on science program offered through a partnership with Four Winds Nature Institute and the financial support of the Rick Marcotte Central School PTO.  The program involves a two-hour training workshop every other month, and a commitment from the volunteers (parents or other community members) to present the materials in the classroom at a time agreed upon by the teacher and volunteers.  Generally, volunteers are in the classroom approximately an hour.   Each class needs a minimum of two volunteers.

The workshops are held from 8:45 to 10:45 am in the cafeteria at school beginning in September, generally they are the first Wednesday of the month.   All materials are provided for parent and community volunteers except a snack for the students, if desired.  Workshops are taped to allow those unable to make the training the opportunity to review the material presented.

The current volunteer coordinators welcome your questions and feedback.  Please contact:
