2023 #10: The 3rd Annual Urban Forestry Education Initiative Professional Development​

We are overjoyed to report that the AZSA-hosted 3rd Annual Urban Forestry Education Initiative Professional Development was a rousing success. This powerful summer session brought together educators from around the Phoenix Metro Area by providing them with the information and resources to incorporate sustainability and environmental education into their curricula. Three teachers were in our K–5 grade level group: Balsz Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, and Washington Elementary. For grades 6–12, there were nine teachers: one from a nonprofit, one from Whiteriver Unified School District, five from Phoenix Union (Chavez H.S., Carl Hayden H.S., Linda Abril Educational Center, and Alhambra H.S.), and two from Phoenix Elementary (Shaw Elementary and Kenilworth Elementary).
