“The best part about Muddy Sneakers is ‘getting the students out in nature and exploring the concepts that I teach in the classroom,’ said Aquadale science teacher Mary Wallace.”
What a perfect description of our program! Many thanks to The Stanly News & Press for joining an expedition of Aquadale Elementary to the Uwharrie National Forest in April and writing such a lovely article about our work in the Piedmont.
“’We like to connect the students to science while also connecting them with nature,’ said Elise Tellez, Muddy Sneakers’ Piedmont field office director.”
