Our Pleasantville campus has 25 acres of land dedicated to wetlands preservation which includes the wildlife residing in these areas.
In addition, the Environmental Center plants and maintains gardens that are beneficial to wildlife (birds, butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, etc.).

The other campuses within the boundary of this report are urban campuses, therefore, the programs listed here are at the Pleasantville (suburban) campus.
