The Nisqually River Education Project’s (NREP) mission is to provide students service learning projects that link Washington State learning goals and standards with local environmental issues, inspiring stewardship of the Nisqually Watershed and the world. The Nisqually River Education Project has a proven history of successfully implementing watershed based education and environmental action projects which engages students and teachers in protecting and enhancing the water quality and salmon habitat of the Nisqually River watershed. By making the involvement of schools possible, the NREP directly supports the efforts of the Nisqually River Council and the Nisqually Tribe in creating a healthier Nisqually River and the preservation of its fisheries and shellfish resources.

The Nisqually River Education Project is a vital component of the over-arching efforts of the Nisqually River Council to achieve its programmatic goals of protecting the health and integrity of this extraordinary watershed.

The NREP works with teachers and students throughout the entire watershed. For more information, please contact Davy Clark, the NREP Program Director, at 360-438-8715 ext 2153 or davy@nisquallyriver.org.
