JUNIOR INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
The Junior Internship Program has three initiatives:
The Junior (A) Internship Programs target senior high school students with a keen interest and passion for environmental sciences. During this internship, students spend a week on the Kenauk property and experience real hands-on data collection, learn about the scientific process, and become familiar with the various fields related to ecology and conservation biology.

The Junior (B) Internship Programs provide school classes with overnight field trips. This is an opportunity for young students to acquire practical experience with biology and ecological sciences. Since these classes stay overnight, they can take advantage of our nocturnal activities, such as astronomical observation.
The Junior (C) Internship Programs provide free day trips for local elementary and high schools. These innovative environmental education programs are focused on providing local young children the opportunity to connect to nature and the wild spaces around them. Students can expect to learn about natural history, wilderness survival, sustainability, and have time for play, all in one day.

DAYTRIPPERS
The Kenauk Institute is proudly partnered with Daytrippers, a Canadian charity with a mission of funding experiential learning opportunities for students in grades 1-8. Daytrippers believes that every student should have the opportunity to visit unique spaces, such as Kenauk, and they work with teachers and their partner organizations to provide these opportunities.
