Los Alamos Public School Field Trips
Each year PEEC provides free Field Trips to LAPS classrooms. Students experience nature as young scientists studying soils, plants, habitats and more. All activities are hands-on and meet science standards! For more information, see LAPS Field Trips or write to Programs@PajaritoEEC.org. Planning a TripStudents should bring their own snacks to eat during break and dress appropriately for outdoor activities. Transportation must be arranged and paid for by each school. Some schools are within walking distance. Nature Discovery Programs for Homeschools
