Planning a Program
As part of membership, school districts are allotted a number of programs in
proportion to their student enrollment, which determines the membership fee.
Dates for programs are decided during June and July of each upcoming academic
year. Each school system has a designated School Liaison that participates in
the planning process. Contact Project Oceanology to find out who the School
Liaison is for your school district.

This option requires the purchase of at least 3 Enviro-lab trips per year,
spread over seasonal distribution. Subscriber option not available to school
systems within a 20 mile radius of Project O.
Another option is to schedule programs with Project O on a
program-by-program basis. However, this limits your participation on the
Envrio-lab to an after 2:30 time slot and you will not be eligible for
discounted rates. Programs based on the shoreline or in our laboratories are
still available during the school day before 2:30 p.m.
Who Can Join
Public school systems, private schools, higher education institutions,
museums, aquariums and other educational organizations.
