Field Experience Overview

Each Field Experience or School Experience fits the needs of the school, classroom, and students, and specific programming requests are handled by the Curriculum Specialist, Sami Wolniakowski. Each program is based on the Colorado standards, and is place-based! We use our outdoor, natural space as the phenomenon we study. Students engage in earth and life science topics such as erosion, water quality, animal adaptations, habitats, and more! We also offer less academic topics, such as survival skills and team building.

Students should bring/wear weather-appropriate clothing, extra layers (it gets windy!), sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), a journal & pencil, a water bottle, lunch, and a backpack.

The Poudre Learning Center is a Greeley-Evans District 6 facility. Although we do accommodate and partner with other districts, and there are some similar scholarship offerings, the fee structure is not applied to our D6 schools. 

A self-led program is for you! This is a great option for homeschools, Scout Troops, and more!

There is no cost for a self-led program. The buildings may or may not open, depending on the request. You must still use the Program Request Form to ensure there is no conflict with other PLC Programs.
