Laguna Docents provide meaningful volunteer service to schools to ensure a healthy future for the Laguna de Santa Rosa and the children of our community. Children need to get outside and spend quality time learning about the natural world so they can thrive in all aspects of their lives.
Learning Laguna is a two-part wetland education experience for 2nd- 4th grade students that inspires learning with specially designed, engaging activities focused on the Laguna ecosystem and gets children outside for
explorations in nature.
