The Science School program includes a full-time Director of EE, four Assistant Coordinators, and 8-10 seasonal Instructors each season. Seasonal Instructors facilitate a wide range of environmental, outdoor and experiential education programs, including lake ecology, herpetology, canoeing, team building, the climbing wall and challenge course.

Instructors will spend the majority of their time teaching, but also assist in program development/updates, outreach, animal husbandry/training (with raptors, reptiles and amphibians), and materials/area maintenance.

Staff that come to 4-HSS are able to gain a lot of experience for their resume: team building facilitation, belaying, canoe instruction, science-based teaching, live animal husbandry for an extensive collection of native and non-native species, Red Cross lifeguard certification (summer season), Alabama boating license (with reimbursement), and the list goes on and on!
