Sea Turtle Education Program

Students and teachers play a key role in helping sea turtle populations recover.  Our school outreach program is designed to help teachers and students not only learn about sea turtles, but to inspire involvement in conservation efforts.  Sea turtles inspire curiosity and empathy in young people and there are lots of opportunities for them to participate in hands-on educational programs.

 

Sea Turtle Field Trips

There is no better way to learn about biology, conservation, and how different cultures interact with their environment than to take a field trip to a sea turtle conservation project.  

SEE Turtles works with well-respected student travel operators in Costa Rica and Mexico to offer unique experiences for students from 6th grade to college.  For every trip that schools take through our program, these operators will make an additional donation to conservation efforts.

 

Class Presentations

We offer engaging classroom presentations by sea turtle experts for all grades.

 

Classroom Resources

Fundraising Program

Small donations can make a huge difference to field conservation projects.  Students can support local researchers, help students in El Salvador visit conservation projects, or adopt sections of beach. Learn more about how your class or group can help here.
