Project SEE (Science and Environmental Education) is a Concord School District science enrichment program founded in 1970. Project SEE delivers classroom and field trip programming to complement the district's elementary science curriculum.

Project SEE's goals are to 1) provide Concord students with concrete, hands-on science experiences, 2) develop scientific and environmental awareness, and 3) inspire good citizens with strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

The Project SEE team leads grade-level field trips for kindergarten to grade 6, both at the Project SEE Learning Center at White Farm and at locations around Concord. These field trips focus on outdoor and applied science experiences, building upon science content taught by teachers and tying to the Next Generation Science Standards. Our science educators also deliver regular lessons in all of our grade 1-5 classrooms, focusing on the hands-on practice of science skills.

You are welcome to visit White Farm to explore the outdoors for yourself. Come hike, ski, bird-watch, or pull weeds in the garden!

White Farm is located at 150 Clinton Street in Concord.

 Live Hawk Event on 9/27/25!

This year, Project SEE is celebrating 55 years serving Concord schools! Our program was created way back in 1970– the same year as the first Earth Day and the establishment of the US Environmental Protection Agency. Since then, we have been exploring the natural world with Concord students and inspiring a love for science.

Join us on Saturday, September 27 to celebrate at our FREE family event! The festivities will center upon the fall hawk migration, a natural wonder that Concord kids have monitored for over 50 years. We’ll start with a Project SEE-led family hawk watch in our field. 

Ever seen a live hawk up close? You will today! Vermont Institute of Natural Sciences (VINS) will present 3 different live hawks! You’ll get an up close look at their unique features and learn the important role they play in our ecosystems. Finally, join us for some community work time on our new pollinator garden or just relax and have a picnic in the yard on our lovely district property.

When: Saturday, September 27 (see schedule below)

Where: Project SEE Learning Center at 150 Clinton Street

Cost: FREE!

Park: At NH State Surplus lot next door (144 Clinton St).

Accessibility: We will reserve spots along the road in front of the Center for accessible parking.

The VINS Hawk Presentation will be in the yard of the Project SEE Learning Center.
