Pre & Post Program Resources

Have you signed up for a program through HBOSC?

For every field experience at HBOSC there are pre-visit and post visit materials to support the student learning process.  Pre-visit materials are optional activities to be completed prior to students participating in the field experience at HBOSC, which might be virtual (live) or on site at the center.  Post visit materials are optional activities that reinforce and extend learning beyond the field experience.  These materials are shared once a class has registered for the field trip.
