Milford School District and Abbottâs Mill Nature Center have partnered this year to continue providing field experiences to students despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Because students are still using a hybrid learning experience with some students still in a completely remote setting, the experiences will be conducted remotely this year.
âAbbottâs Mill has worked to pivot our traditionally hands-on rich field experiences with a remote environment,â Dr. Bridget Amory, Director of Student Learning, said. âWhile the experiences will be different this year, we are confident in Abbottâs Mill and their ability to engage our students. We are eager to resume our partnership and provide this opportunity for our students.â
