River-Lab provides classroom materials and activities for students, extensive training for study-trip guides, and professional development for teachers. At each grade level, classroom teaching is enhanced by study-trips to the Mill River and the town estuaries. Each year, more than 185 volunteers guide over 3,500 children through more than 650 study-trips. All elements of the program have been adopted as part of the science curriculum. A 2007 redevelopment of the program has now aligned River-Lab with the State of Connecticut Science Curriculum Framework in preparation for the Connecticut
Mastery Tests in Science administered to each student in grades 5 and 8.
