School Forest

The Noboken School Forest is a 168 acre site located 12 miles north of Antigo on Hwy. J near Jack Lake. The school district registered the property as a school forest in 1931. Noboken School Forest has several different habitat types including a tamarack swamp, a small pond and a 27 acre lake, Noboken Lake. There has been renewed interest in utilizing this educational facility with district students participating in environmental education and recreational activities.

A huge step towards our goal of increased environmental education has been taken with the completion of our Environmental Education Center.
