USD 420 Osage City

OCHS students interested in travel, adventure, and conservation, join us for an information meeting on September 10th in Ms. Dunbar's room at 6 pm to learn about an amazing opportunity coming Summer 2026!

From June 2nd-10th OCHS Life Sciences students will have the unique opportunity to travel to Costa Rica's beautiful Pacuare Reserve, a working field research station, to work side-by-side with conservation scientists who are working hard to protect the incredible leatherback sea turtle and the rainforests of Costa Rica. Students will be collecting data, exploring the biodiversity of the lowland tropical rainforest and engaging in some of the most exciting experiences of their lives.

You can click on the following link for a video that shows some of the highlights of the experience. https://youtu.be/tUUj0sGJaTw?si=5ERjR5CJ2gBUbc_q
