Education Programs

The WaterFront Center's education department offers classes for students of all ages. Year round we serve
local schools, community groups, scout troops and individuals who join our programs.

Subjects vary from marine and environmental science to maritime and local history.

  • School Programs

    Introduce your students to local marine wildlife and help foster their appreciation for and understanding of the marine environment through the WaterFront Center’s school programs. These hands-on programs, with a focus on inquiry and discovery, were created by a New York State certified teacher to meet and reinforce the New York State Standards, as well as the National Science Standards.Teachers can use these programs as a foundation for a science unit and to make connections across disciplines including mathematics, social studies, and language arts. Please contact us with any questions, or to see the specific standards met by each program. Schools that meet New York State criteria as educating an underserved population may inquire about a possible reduction in fee.

  • Scout Programs

    The WaterFront Center can host scouts of all ages.
    All of our scout programs were designed using scout guidelines. 

  • Staff Development - Teacher Training

    The WaterFront Center will gladly host a staff development/teacher training day for classroom teachers and science teachers in one of our classrooms, on the beach, and/or on the Christeen.  For more information, please contact the Education Department.

  • Environmental Research

    The WaterFront Center staff helps facilitate marine research opportunities for your students.
