With the back-to-school season here, environmental education field trips will be commencing in just a few weeks, and we need STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Match) Coach volunteers to support these programs!
All returning and perspective volunteers are invited to attend our upcoming STEAM Coach Training.
Wednesday, September 13th
Garibaldi Boathouse (1209 Bay Lane, Garibaldi)
9am-Noon: Orientation, Noon-2pm: Catered Lunch Social and Activity Demos
This training will include an orientation for new STEAM Coach Volunteers in the morning, followed by an optional catered lunch social and hands-on demonstrations of upcoming field trip activities.
STEAM Coaches don’t need to be experts, they just need to be passionate about helping students learn! We look forward to seeing you at our next training!
What is the TC STEAM Partnership?
Across the county, a partnership of 20 local organizations works together to provide a variety of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, mathematics) programs to Tillamook County K-12 students. Together, this partnership offers students numerous experiential education programs, including environmental science field trips, farm-to-table school gardens, science fairs, cultural programming, research projects, professional development, and more. Each year, hundreds of students participate in these programs, which are made possible by volunteer STEAM Coaches.
In order to offer these community-enriching programs, the TC STEAM Partnership needs volunteer STEAM Coaches to fulfill a variety of roles. STEAM Coaches are people who believe all students should be able to learn about STEAM subjects through educational experiences that are hands-on and inquiry-based.
