The Auburn Land Lab environmental education facility uses Auburn School Department staff, community agencies, and many community volunteers to provide K-12 students with authentic, standards-based science instruction and assessment. Teachers in and out of the Auburn district bring their students to the Land Lab for a variety of learning opportunities, including hands-on science, team-building, and integrated curriculum studies.
