Riverbend On The Road

Norristown Area School District and The School District of Philadelphia
This program began with a partnership with Norristown Area School District in 2006. We now serve every third and fourth grade student (approximately 1,200 children) in all six NASD elementary schools with a four-part program that includes teacher training, a pre-lesson at the school, a field trip to Riverbend and a post-lesson. Third grade students study properties of water and watersheds in the spring and fourth grades students study ecosystems and their interactions in the fall. We also do similar programs for two schools in Philadelphia.

Schools served in Norristown: Cole Manor Elementary, Gotwals Elementary, Hancock Elementary, Marshall Street Elementary and Paul V. Fly and Whitehall Elementary

Schools served in Philadelphia: Dr. Tanner G. Duckrey Elementary and Ferguson Elementary
