Field Study

Throughout a student's time in SEA-DISC, they will have the opportunity to go on many educational adventures with their class or the whole academy. In both junior and senior year, students will visit many places that can be connected to the current project. No matter where the class travels there is always knowledge to be learned and fun to be had. Each field trip provides the students with an enjoyable learning community instead of staying in a classroom all the time.

Recent Field Study

In the 2025-2026 school year the SEA-DISC senior and junior classes kept busy, from camping in Samuel P. to creek restoration to zoo visits! Earth day was a major success as well, check out the Earth Day page! SEA-DISC is back with field trips and better than ever.

Mare Field Study

MARE stands for Marine Applied Research and Exploration. They are a non-profit organization that has a mission to explore and document the unknown parts of the ocean. For this virtual field trip, students were in person, while presenters talked over zoom, about the ocean, their programs, and their jobs. Students were also encouraged to participate in a contest, that required them to make infographics about the effects of plastic. 

Tidepooling

In 2025 SEA-DISC students went tidepooling at Duxbury Reef in Bolinas. The reef is home to over 200 species of marine life that the students got to explore!
