“After a lot of research, I chose Teton Science schools!!!”

Reviewed 8 May 2013

Great choice. What sets Teton Science schools apart from others is perhaps the genuine knowledge and passion about the area and animals. I wanted to see Moose, and Sarah did not give up until we found a mother moose and her twins. The telescopes provided to see animals in the distance were outstanding!
