About the program

What is Clean Creek Campus?

Clean Creek Campus is a free program consisting of engaging, science-based activities built for 3rd-8th graders. Students are able to connect in-school learning to local environmental issues and solutions, with a focus on protecting water quality.

 

Participating schools will receive two in-class presentations, followed by a field trip and instruction for local service project opportunities. The field activities will emphasize creek restoration and clean water quality, including activities such as litter cleanup, seedball making, macroinvertebrate investigation, native versus invasive plant exploration, and a scavenger hunt (depending on student and teacher interest).
