Stroud Water Research Center: Calling Lancaster County Teachers - Join Outdoor Leadership Network Initiative

Are you a Lancaster County teacher? Do you want to learn about outdoor leadership skills and how to bring your students into nature while becoming better stewards of our local watersheds? 

Join the Outdoor Leadership Network Initiative and gain experience from teachers who have been teaching and engaging students in environmental literacy and action for years!

Funded by the Chesapeake Bay Trust Environmental Education Grant Program in 2019, backbone partners including Millersville University, Lancaster Conservation District, and the Stroud Center, have brought professional learning and outdoor leadership to Lancaster County school districts (Conestoga Valley, Ephrata, and Columbia) for grades 4–12. 

This initiative has included over 25 teachers, and we are recruiting for summer 2022’s training June 20-24!
