Brief Description
This program is for high school students and educators (K12).
Participants learn about natural resources and how they are being
managed through field trips and a land management planning exercise.
Students are given many career ideas, encouraged to stay in school
and have the opportunity to experience interaction with others
from differing backgrounds (rural/urban and cultural). Teachers
write lesson plans for their classrooms, receive a wealth of material
and "handson" ideas plus 3 hours of continuing
education credit from Southern Oregon State College. Cost is $50
including room, board, registration and transportation from centralized
points in Oregon and Northern California. Teachers also pay approximately
$40 per credit hour.
