This spring, students can learn about water use and runoff through interactive assemblies or explore local water resources while engaging in class projects — all thanks to water education programs hosted by Inside the Outdoors.  In celebration of World Water Day on March 22, the OCDE-led environmental education program is making a splash by opening applications to Orange County classrooms eager to learn more about the wonders of water. The traveling scientist programs, available for students in grades three through 12, are offered through a grant partnership with the Municipal Water District of Orange County and the Family of Orange County Water Providers.
