WINGS OVER WILDERNESS

Wings Over Wilderness (WOW) is a field trip opportunity for Title 1 schools across the Lowcountry. Working with grades 1-12, the WOW program gives students the opportunity to make a meaningful connections with local ecosystems and wildlife through an immersive field trip.

Through a variety of field trip itineraries that include kayaking to Crab Bank Seabird Sanctuary, barrier island exploration to Bulls Island or hiking in Francis Marion National Forest, the wings of each classroom expand beyond four walls. Together with this program’s sponsor, Boeing SC, we are connecting students with Charleston’s wild places.

Program goals include:  Increasing comfort on the water, creating future environmental stewards, and developing environmental literacy.

If you are a teacher or administrator of a Title 1 school in the Lowcountry, we invite you to inquire about a field trip for your school.
