Welcome to the Worthington Field Studies Inc. Home Page.  This site is designed to meet the needs of parents and students participating in a WFSI trip and a way to keep all of our 2000+ alumni up to date on what is happening with the organization.

WFSI is a non-profit 501 3(c) organization that takes students from the Worthington and Westerville school districts to the U.S. Virgin Islands over spring break and to the Rocky Mountains over summer break.  Participants on each trip have unique opportunities to learn science concepts unattainable inside the traditional science classroom.
