Bringing Redwood to the Classroom

Curriculum-Based Video Series

Howland Hill Outdoor School (HHOS) has created a curriculum-based video series designed for first and second graders. Developed by HHOS rangers, these programs continue the spirit of the Every Kid in a Park initiative, launched during the 2016 Centennial Year of the National Park Service. These engaging educational videos allow students who can’t visit the redwoods in person to experience and learn about this incredible ecosystem from anywhere in the world.

In-Park Education Opportunities

Redwood National and State Parks offer two in-park educational facilities available by reservation for standards-based programs:

• Howland Hill Outdoor School – Located near Crescent City, CA.
• Wolf Creek Outdoor School – Located near Orick, CA.

Programs are available as both day and overnight experiences, with a focus on field studies in wetland, stream, prairie, and old-growth forest communities. Tidepool exploration may also be available near Crescent City, depending on staffing and low tide schedules.
