Habitat at School

Tucson Audubon’s Habitat at School inspires student exploration and inquiry, builds responsibility and stewardship, and creates a lasting outdoor living laboratory that will enrich core curriculum for years to come.

Through the process of creating native wildlife habitat within their own schoolyard, students ignite their natural skills as scientists, detectives, designers, problem solvers, and communicators. Schoolyard habitats become peaceful refuges for students and faculty alike, and act as models to inspire other institutions and the surrounding community to build habitats of their own.

Tucson Audubon worked hand-in-hand with area schools to create schoolyard habitats at the following schools:

• Sam Hughes Elementary
• Changemaker High School
• Manzo Elementary
• The Gregory School
• Sunnyside High School
