Stewardship Extension
After the traditional in-class lesson and field study trip, teachers participating in the Greenway Environmental Education Program may register their students for an optional stewardship extension day to take their students on a community service experience to further enrich their hands-on experience. Teachers can choose to remove invasive plants, work in the native tree nursery or plant trees.
