Rural Action Appalachian Green Teachers Project
May 4th Environmental Education Symposium
Part of one of the most biodiverse eco-regions in the world, Appalachian Ohio’s landscape is one of the region’s greatest educational assets. Rural Action’s Appalachian Green Teachers Project connects students and teachers with outdoor and environmental education opportunities that take advantage of this asset. Working with partners such as Little Cities of the Forest Collaborative, we worked with more than 20 teachers and 500 students in 2011-12 to reach academic content standards through hands-on experiences in the rolling hills of Southeast Ohio.
