New Haven's park ranger programs introduce students to New Haven s park system. Students learn about the ranger s job, which is to teach people about our parks and the resources found in them, and they develop a sense of ownership of their parks. To schedule a program or to obtain more information about a topic, call the telephone number listed at the end of each program section. This coincides with the New Haven school system free bus time.
Ranger programs are free for students in the New Haven schools.
If you schedule a ranger program and must cancel, please call as soon as possible. We always have another class anxious to take your place. This program involves the exploration of Edgewood Park in the winter. Searching for animal tracks, as well as being able to identify trees without leaves, makes this program a great activity for children, grades K-6. Available only during the winter.
