The
Chesapeake Bay Foundation is seeking qualified individuals to fill a Pennsylvania Rivers, Streams and Schoolyards Assistant Manager/Field Educator position to be based in Harrisburg..

The Pennsylvania Rivers, Streams, & Schoolyards Environmental Education program provides experiential, hands-on field investigations for students in southcentral PA. 

These experiences include schoolyard-based explorations, classroom engagement, and canoe-based river investigations designed to provide students with the opportunity to learn about their local watershed and its connection to the Chesapeake Bay. 

Participants in these programs delve into the vibrant ecology of Pennsylvania through hands-on, field-based curriculum that emphasizes scientific investigation of local ecosystems that aligns with the Pennsylvania Science, Technology & Engineering, Environmental Literacy & Sustainability (STEELS) standards.

Program staff are based in Harrisburg and will travel daily throughout the southcentral region of PA to lead inquiry-based classroom lessons and conduct schoolyard investigations.
