Opportunities for Educators

 

The Ecology School is a recognized leader and pioneer in overnight environmental education.

Since 1998, we have been developing innovative and immersive programming that is rooted in students’ natural inclination to explore, be curious, laugh, and play outside. In our professional development programs, traditional and non-traditional educators learn the inner workings of our unique and highly successful pedagogy that inspires creativity and meets curriculum standards. Our professional development programs welcome individual education professionals as well as groups of teachers, administrators, etc. that are  interested in our immersive workshop experience. 

Connect with Alex Grindle, Director of Programs, to learn more about these opportunities.
