In the foothills of Tulare County, California, SCICON welcomes students to learn about the importance of science and conservation. The Outdoor School of Science and Conservation is operated by the Tulare Office of Education and each year, over 8,000 fifth and sixth graders visit the school to explore the wonders of nature.
Dianne Shew, the director of SCICON, describes the place as magical. The primary goal of SCICON is to educate students about nature, environmental care, self-discovery, and respect for one another. The school is situated on 1,170 acres of land that borders National Forest land, ensuring the preservation of the area for future generations. Students can participate in a variety of activities including hikes, aquatic studies, and visits to a museum showcasing local flora and fauna.
