The Connecticut Audubon Society conserves Connecticut’s environment through science-based education and advocacy focused on the state’s bird populations and habitats.
Deer Pond Farm in Sherman has approximately 835 acres with 20 miles of hiking trails open to the public daily dawn to dusk. The diverse geology, habits, flora and fauna support over 100 species of birds. Weekly guided programs are offered throughout the year on various nature themes. No: dogs, horses, fishing, camping, fires, hunting or collecting permitted.
Founded in 1898, the Connecticut Audubon Society operates nature facilities in Fairfield, Milford, Glastonbury, Pomfret, Hampton, and Sherman, a center in Old Lyme, and an EcoTravel office in Essex.
Connecticut Audubon manages 20 wildlife sanctuaries encompassing almost 3,300 acres of open space in Connecticut, and educates over 100,000 children and adults annually. Connecticut Audubon is an independent organization, not affiliated with any national or governmental group.
Connecticut Audubon Society’s scientists, educators, citizen scientists, and volunteers work to preserve birds and their environments in Connecticut. Our work includes sanctuary management, advocacy, environmental education and activities at our centers, scientific studies, and our annual Connecticut State of the Birds report.

What we do here at Reis Learning Center is more than just tutoring. We use a series of measures in reading comprehension, writing, mathematics, and phonics as necessary to identify and then remedy any gaps that a student may have in his or her education. Once we have a picture of the student’s areas of strength and weakness, an individualized program is designed to address those specific needs.
Our academic support programs are individually designed, taught on a one to one basis, and completed at a rate that is guided by the student. Programs include Skill Building, Subject Tutoring, Homework Help, Exam Prep (SAT, ACT, SSAT, ISEE, etc.), Organization and Study Skills, and more. Reis Learning Center also puts an emphasis on instilling positive classroom behaviors (such as asking questions and self advocating) as well as confidence building in the classroom and beyond.
