Students Visit The National Aviary in Pittsburgh, PA
January 7th, 2017 | Student Experience
On Saturday January 7th, ASG students visited the National Aviary in Pittsburgh, PA. With a collection consisting of over 500 birds from more than 150 species, many of them threatened or endangered, the National Aviary is America’s only indoor zoo dedicated exclusively to birds. Field trips are an integral component of the American education, allowing students to engage with the subject matter in a hands-on manner, fostering self-learning. Following their visit to the National Aviary, the students enjoyed dinner at the Mongolian Grille and shopping at Pittsburgh’s Asian Market. Our students thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to learn about birds in a simulated natural environment and are anxious for similar opportunities in the future.
