The Pacific Education Institute (PEI) expands students' opportunities to learn in real-world settings throughout Washington State. Students apply math, science, the arts, and social studies skills to field investigations both out-of-doors and in their classrooms. PEI's rigorous research-based approach assures that students are "learning by doing". The Pacific Education Institute was founded by public and private partners.
