In many areas across the country school campuses are the best opportunity to optimize natural systems where green space is needed most. The Catawba College Center for the Environment would like to share an educational model that focuses on the greening of school campuses to foster environmental literacy, native biodiversity, climate resilience, and healthier communities. Participants will experience Project Understory investigations that are interdisciplinary, with a focus on the new science standards.
