Project Details

Brief Project Summary:

The Water Resources Education Program engaged over 120 students from 4 Northern Michigan middle schools in a foundation-laying program of watershed experiences that was focused on local issues and stewardship of community water resources. Students were provided with water resources knowledge over the course of four in-class sessions. This knowledge allowed students to plan and implement an action project that was designed to improve or fix a water resource issue in their community. Over the course of the program, teachers received training, resources, and tools to continue water-resources education in the future.
