Classroom Education

Skagit Fisheries Enhancement Group provides stewardship opportunities for all ages! Many local teachers place great value on engaging their students in service-learning projects, and hands-on outdoor educational opportunities. Even a one-time experience helps build a sense of understanding and ownership among students and teachers. Students take great pride in improving their world.

With all the testing and performance measures required of schools, a one-time project may be the only time teachers can afford to dedicate to service-learning. Our education programs are designed to engage students in the wonders of the watershed in which we live, the salmon that depend on these watersheds, and the understanding that healthy watersheds are good for all living things.

The following programs offer in-depth, science-based, hands-on experiential learning about watersheds and salmon habitat restoration to elementary, middle and high school age youth. We currently serve more than 1,000 students annually in Skagit County.
