Educators
One of the best ways to educate the younger generation about issues concerning water quality are through our schools. Providing teachers with material to take to the classroom is important to the TCPWQ Committee. Below are just a couple of great resources that can be utilized in our schools. If you have ideas or other resources, please share with us!
Training Presentations
Below are materials that have been presented at various seminars, conferences and classrooms by qualified professionals. These presentations are great resources for educating yourself and other citizens in your community. If you are interested in scheduling a presentation for a group, please see the Contacts page for additional contact information for local experts in stormwater management.

- A Day in the Life of a Drop - an activitiy to help students (Grades 3-5) understand the connections between the source of the water they use; the ways their water use habits affect the environment and human health and ways to reduce their impacts by pledging to take steps to use water more efficiently
