Wisconsin educators have a new go-to resource with the introduction of

the Wisconsin Great Lakes Education Clearinghouse network. The online

Great Lakes clearinghouse adds a new dimension to a statewide website

already rich in environmental information for teachers in this state:

Environmental Education in Wisconsin, at: http://www.eeinwisconsin.org/

Registration is now open for high school students and teachers to attend the 2008 Governor's High School Conference on the Environment. Student Power: Conserving Your Future with Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy will be held November 12, 2008 in Stevens Point, WI. Up to $300 in travel and substitute teacher stipends are available to each school attending. More information: http://www.uwsp.edu/cnr/wcee/youthconference/.

Come join your fellow district members for a morning hike, a chance to do tree identification and to make connections with other science teachers in the area.   Please bring along your family members and this is also a pet friendly hiking area as long as pets are on on-leash.   WSST will provide a snack after our hike but please provide your own water.  Bring your enthusiasm, good hiking shoes, lesson ideas that you may want to share, and of course, water.

When:   Saturday, October 4
Please meet in the parking lot at 10:00 am
