IN 2023, THE JBS WETLAND CENTER OFFERED 105 PROGRAMS SERVING 4,750 STUDENTS AND 275 ADULTS. PROGRAMS OFFERED INCLUDE THESE MAJOR AREAS; WETLAND ECOLOGY, PLANT ECOLOGY, BIRD ADAPTATIONS AND WATER CONSERVATION.

EACH PROGRAM IS GEARED TOWARD THE TEXAS ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS GIVING STUDENTS HANDS ON EXPERIENCE IN CONDUCTING FIELD RESEARCH AND APPLYING IT TO SCHOOL- BASED STUDIES. THE PROGRAMS ALSO ASSIST TEACHERS IN USING THE WETLAND AS A DEMONSTRATION MODEL OF HOW HUMANS MAY HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT. WE BELIEVE THIS METHOD HELPS STUDENTS MAKE SOUND ENVIRONMENTAL DECISIONS AND PROVIDES A FRAME OF REFERENCE WHEN CHOOSING A SCIENCE-BASED CAREER PATH. OUR PROGRAMS ARE CONTINUALLY DEVELOPED AND IMPROVING USING EXTERNAL REVIEW AND INPUT FROM TEACHERS AND RESEARCHERS ALIKE.
