Summer Institute for Teachers


Teachers listen to a NPS employee in the snow near Mount Rainier.

Summer Institute for Teachers (SIFT) is an annual, multi-day training for teachers in the NREP’s, South Sound GREEN’s, and the Chehalis Basin Education Consortium’s programming. Teachers hear from local environmental experts, visit local green spaces, and are provided with new and engaging learning resources to take back to their own classrooms.

This hands-on, relevant, and FREE training occurs shortly after the end of the school year. To learn more, contact Davy Clark at davy@nisquallyriver.org or (360) 438-8715 ext 2153
