Central Maine: Association helps local schools by funding outdoor learning projects
“The shift to outdoor learning during the pandemic has offered schools the opportunity to reimagine their classrooms and the lessons they teach. The Maine Environmental Education Association strove to support this opportunity by distributing close to $200,000 this school year, funding 160 schools across the state, in all 16 counties.
Teachers are using these funds to teach students about the natural world, provide them with skills that enable their independence, and ensure more time outside.
Schools include Cony, Palermo, Richmond, China, Gardiner, Albion, Oakland, Madison, Canaan, Skowhegan, Clinton, Fairfield and Hartland.”
