THANK YOU to Greenville Water for sponsoring a successful Project WET professional development for Greenville County Schools K-12 teachers! Community organizations Greenville Water, SC Adopt-a-Stream, PalmettoPride, Greenville County Soil and Water, and Roper Mountain staff partnered last Friday at Roper Mountain Science Center for Splashing Into STEAM With Water Education: an initiative to engage schools, teachers and students in local watershed education and stewardship. Thanks to the sponsorship, teachers received the new Water in Earth Systems curriculum guide, complimentary lunch and T-shirt, local educational resources, and activity kits.
