As a teacher, you have the unique opportunity to educate and encourage children to adopt a resource-saving lifestyle from an early age. Because educating future generations was one of the reasons the city created the Utility Exploration Center, teachers played a major role in helping us design a facility and programs that would prove functional and fun for class field trips.

The center offers three field trip choices for school groups to accommodate group sizes ranging from 10 to 70: 

All Grades - Exhibit Tour (appropriate for small groups or mixed age groups)

1st -3rd Grades (Planet Protector Series)

4th-6th Grades

Field trips are offered Tuesday through Friday with morning sessions starting at 10a.m. and afternoon sessions starting at noon. All field trips are correlated to the California Content Standards in science as well as the Education and the Environment Initiative.

The first through sixth grade field trips are designed for 15 to 70 students. Larger groups are divided into two groups and rotated through the exhibit hall and our technology lab for a hands-on science activity. Teachers and parent chaperones participate as "lab assistants" to assist students during the experiment portion of the program. We request a parent/student ration of 1:6 if possible.
