Since the late 1960s, the Shawnee Mission School District has offered its students unique learning experiences in natural areas. Shawnee Mission South established the Shawnee Mission Environmental Science Lab (SMESL), a 22-acre campus that includes a woodland, prairie, pond, and trails situated along Indian Creek.
This is your chance to get in and see what the space is all about! Join us to learn how SMESL is a part of the District’s sustainability efforts. Following this overview, Cydney Ross, Deep Roots’ Outdoor Education Program Manager, will lead a nature tour of the site. P.J. Born, Deep Roots Land Manager for SMESL (and retired Environmental Education Teacher) will talk about student learning opportunities and involvement in the lab.
