Teacher Training
Workshops
Throughout the year, the Environmental Services Department
conducts teacher training workshops on watershed, recycling and composting
topics. These workshops, led by Department staff, use hands-on activities
correlated with California Curriculum Content Standards. All curriculum
materials are provided free to participating educators.
The Department also collaborates with other area agencies
to promote their teacher training workshops from this web page.

Learning about our watershed is a way to integrate concepts across curricula
while drawing upon real world, local issues. We offer in-service training
or teacher development day watershed workshops tailored to suit your
needs. Stipends are available for teachers who complete an action project

Composting
in the Classroom
The Home Composting Education
Program of Santa Clara County can help your school start
a composting program. Composting at school is EXCITING!
Kids love it!
Schedule a teacher
training or class presentation on how to compost at school. We prefer
to begin programs early in the school year so students can see the
changes in the compost as the year progresses. For more information
please contact:
