We love catching up with recent alumni, and today we’re sharing news from a really recent alumna, Scarlet Labbé-Watson, one of our 2022-23 Youth Environmental Leader Scholars. Scarlet just returned to Watershed School in Camden, ME, after participating in Maine Coast Semester this fall, and she’s already hard at work on a new project, “Unfurling Ferns: An Exploration of Climate Change through Music and Poetry.”

The Coastal Ecology Kayak Expedition is a no-cost three-week summer program designed for ten participants in grades 9-12, with an interest in coastal ecology, conservation, marine science, or a marine services career. Apply now!

Maine Coast Semester students just returned from wintry backcountry expeditions – a highlight of the semester experience. Trips visited five locations throughout Maine and New Hampshire, and each brought back a camera full of images documenting their journey. Which is Best is Snow? We’ll let you be the judge.

With the Maine Coast Semester at Chewonki application deadline approaching on February 15, we wanted to take a moment to highlight this unique program. Have you ever thought about Maine Coast Semester for a young person in your life but weren’t sure how they’d fit in? Well, we’ve got a few numbers for you.
