Youth Education Program
Youth Education Programs are
central to the mission to provide a connection to nature for people of all ages
and abilities. Specifically, the School-age Program serves over 6,500 K-6th
grade students and 100 teachers and adult caregivers each year through a
variety of immersive and hands-on programs. Each is designed to spark a passion
for nature and the environment. Schools from throughout the Cincinnati region
visit the Nature Center to participate in field trips and attend teacher
training. Smaller-scale off-site programs such as schoolyard
native garden installations are also provided. In 2021-2022, CNC will formally introducing the
newest component to its School Programs: Next in Nature. This program focuses
on conservation education for students ages 13-18; it will empower them to
address the environmental issues that impact their futures, while also teaching
them life skills and building confidence.
