* The total of 11,894 is the number of student, parent and teacher contacts, rather than the actual number of students, parents and teachers because many individuals participated in more than one activity (e.g., some students may have attended a classroom presentation, a field trip, and a ZunZun assembly).

** Service learning opportunities were offered to students, grades 5 and up, and included trail maintenance, habitat restoration, frog and turtle programs, and more.
