Testimonials

Testimonials for Wildmind Education and Science programs

"I have to push to get any information from my son about what he was
learning at school. Not these past few weeks. He would come home every
night excited to talk about what he learned... As a parent, it was exciting
for me to see him so engaged and so motivated to learn." -
Parent

"Wildmind's science units are among those we are very high on as they
have a variety of touch points within the NGSS and Common Core, making
it cost effective and easier for our principals and teachers to meet their
goals." - District Administrator

"I was fortunate to be a parent volunteer the day Wildmind provided an
assembly to my son's 3rd grade class. The reaction of the students to the
subject matter was one of excitement and awe, and I was impressed to see
them so engaged in answering questions." - Parent

"The assemblies are always so powerful. The kids are thoroughly mesmerized
by the animals and the educators. As a teacher, I appreciate the staff's
ability to engage all the students during the presentation." - Teacher
