Is the Marine Protected Area offshore from Crystal Cove State Park working? Your class can help us find out! During this integrated program, students help scientists study the Crystal Cove State Marine Conservation Area and explore how communities can use science communication to protect our oceans.

As an optional part of the program run in partnership with Newport Whales (https://newportwhales.com/), classes can head to sea aboard a fishing vessel to help collect monitoring data in the Crystal Cove State Marine Conservation Area! Scholarship funding is available for Title I schools.
