 Participating teachers will receive a free copy of Project WET Curriculum and Activity Guide 2.0, access to the Project WET Web Portal, and a $75 stipend.  Napa Valley Unified School District teachers have the option to earn 0.5 CEUs in lieu of the stipend.  

The interdisciplinary nature of Project WET activities and their alignment with Common Core State Standards make them easy to insert into existing lesson plans.  Hands-on demonstration of the activities will make for engaging sessions with other educators passionate about water education. Food and beverages will be provided by sponsors. 

Local Project WET sponsors are the City of Napa, Napa Sanitation District, County of Napa and the Napa County Resource Conservation District.  Interested teachers will find informational posters/cards at their campuses.  

Registration must be submitted by Friday, Jan. 24 via email, fax, or mail as indicated on the registration form.  Only the first 25 registrants will be accepted.  Registration questions may be directed to 707-258-6000 x502.
