Field Trips

There is no better classroom than the outdoors. Irvine offers 11 different field trips that provide students of all ages meaningful outdoor experiences.

To schedule a trip, complete and return the registration form on page 8 of the School Program Brochure as soon as possible. Registration will begin on August 15, 2013 and forms will be processed in the order in which they are received.

During most trips, students work in small groups to make observations, collect data, compare and classify organisms, and draw conclusions. To help enrich the experience, Irvine sends background information and pre/post field trip activity suggestions to teachers. Many of our field trips complement local curricula as well as state and national science standards.
