OSU Extension 4-H, the West Linn School District, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and Woodward Gardens is partnering with the University of Wisconsin Earth Partnership for Schools Program for a Fall RESTORE Institute. We are now recruiting 6-8 schools for our RESTORE Summer Institute. RESTORE (Restoration, Education, Science, Training and Outreach for Regional Educators) trains teams of teachers and community partners to bring Earth Partnership for Schools back to their home states and communities. Each school will be asked to bring a minimum of two teachers and/or one community partner/parent volunteer to the Institute. Earth Partnership engages students, teachers, community partners and parent volunteers in restoring native habitats on schoolyards and nature areas that become learning grounds for science, math, language arts, social studies, student-led inquiry, service learning and unstructured nature play. 

Registration is open (closes Sept. 16) and two professional graduate credits are available through the University of Wisconsin.
