The Chattanooga Forest School Teacher Alliance

Seed

Planted this seed

A forest school teacher training hub where local educators could access seasonal training sessions focused on forest school pedagogy. This initiative directly connects with the National Park City charter cultivating a “city in a park" mindset among our youth and enhancing the use of Chattanooga's natural assets. By equipping our local Hamilton County schools with nature-based curriculum skills, this project would be fully aligned with the city's goal of embedding nature into daily education.

Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States

Local schools, and a local green space/park for training, fulfilling the, "rooted in a specific neighborhood" goal. We would partner with local environmental education groups and teachers from Hamilton County Schools.
