Alice and Erle Nye Family Environmental Science Center

Opened in the fall of 2009, the state-of-the-art LEED-Certified Alice and Erle Nye Family Environmental Science Center offers laboratories, classrooms, and meeting space. With over 40 acres of untouched land to explore, Lakehill students have the opportunity to experience nature in a pristine, untouched environment.

Students in Lower and Middle School visit the Alice and Erle Nye Family Environmental Science Center once every six weeks. A comprehensive scope and sequence has been developed for the Environmental Science Center for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. The science curriculum for each grade is thematic and concepts introduced are built upon from one year to the next. Upper School students have the opportunity to utilize the ESC to conduct scientific studies through related course labwork.
