Visit Blue Hill Observatory’s national historic landmark at 635 feet atop Great Blue Hill. Each program is aligned to NGSS standards and gives students a unique hands-on experience. Choose a program based on your age group.
Bring Blue Hill Observatory directly to your students through one of our traveling programs. Our educators come to you, delivering engaging, curriculum-connected weather and climate experiences.
Blue Hill Observatory offers two weeklong intensive summer programs for youth interested in weather, climate, and the environment, as well as additional summer and school-break options.
We love joining libraries and other community spaces to share information about weather, climate, and our environment. Invite us to your venue to explore BHO’s longstanding climate record, instruments, historic storms, and more.
Access Blue Hill Observatory’s full Nature’s Record curriculum — all lessons and photos — at no cost. Email our Director of STEM Education, Krista Fincke, at education@bluehill.org. We only ask that you share how you plan to use it in your classroom!
