As a teacher, you know students need more than just classroom learning. Sometimes they want to be stimulated and challenged with outside experiences that enrich what they learn inside the classroom.

The Contra Costa Water District has a variety of field trip, classroom programs and assembly experiences that you can choose for your students. All programs are provided at no cost within CCWD's service area. CCWD will also reimburse the cost of bus transportation for many of the programs.

Most of our programs book up quickly. We start accepting requests for our field trips and classroom programs for the next school year starting May 1, 2007. The calendar shows available program dates.

Registration forms can be downloaded from this site, along with Frequently Asked Questions for each program type. Book early for the best times and dates.

Whether it's visiting the Los Vaqueros Watershed to learn about plants, wildlife, and California history, or getting a look at the technology that protects our drinking water supply, the Contra Costa Water District is happy to provide a variety of stimulating experiences your students will long remember.
