Teachers are very important advocates of life science and we work hard to help teachers enhance their students' understanding and appreciation of agriculture and wildlife through our organization of tours and exhibits.
We also provide workshops and in-service programs covering animal science, farm units, basic wildlife rehabilitation, and provision of fertilized eggs for classroom incubation.
Teachers who are interested in either
continuing their education
or enhancing their students' understanding of
animal behavior and habitats, conservation and rehabilitation should
contact us to arrange a consultation.
We provide intensive studies on raptors, reptiles, and other animal
science topics. We also can help you with developing a school garden
program.
All science education activities are under the direction
of Dr.
Diane Crowe, who has over 40 years experience as an educator, 27 of those
years as an elementary school principal. She is an international speaker for
the National Science Teachers Association of America, and recipient of
numerous awards:
- Austin Humane Societies'
"Humanitarian of the Year Award" - Texas Land Commission's
"Environmental Education Award" - Science Teachers Association of Texas
"Distinguished Leadership Award in Science Education"
