Story of Drinking Water

 

Water Education

Woodinville Water District offers several fun and exciting classroom presentations to all grade levels in schools in our service area to help students explore the fascinating world of water.  Presentations are tailored to our region, meet the Washington State EELR’s and are offered free of charge. Each class is conducted by an experienced naturalist from our consultant company, Nature Vision, Inc., a company that spawned from the King County Nature Connections program.  This program was the recipient of the Environmental Education Association of Washington’s Award of Excellence.  We also offer assistance to “Blue Teams” and high school students with a senior project related to drinking water.  Check out our flyer for program offerings.  Teachers can contact Nature Vision directly to book a presentation.   

 

If you would like additional information about our programs, contact our Public Information Coordinator.
