General Info
Harris Center Since its founding in 1970, the Harris Center has been bringing environmental studies to local schools throughout the school year. If you live in the Monadnock Region, chances are that your children or your neighbors' children have participated in Harris Center programs. Classroom lessons and activities, combined with active exploration of local schoolyards and conservation land, builds a strong foundation for a continuing appreciation and respect for the natural world. Harris Center teacher/naturalists work with classroom teachers to plan age-appropriate programs for students in the elementary grades through high school. Topics range from local bird and mammal studies, interpreting mammal tracks and signs, observing the life cycle of frogs in a natural wetland ( not in formaldehyde! ) to Geology and Astronomy. At the high school level, students monitor water quality in the Contoocook River and work with local conservation commissions. During the summer, children can continue nature exploration through a variety of summer programs. In addition, Harris Center facilities serve as a field station for Antioch New England's Graduate Program in Environmental Studies.
