Teach students to protect local waterways! Adopt-a-Drain is a great program for students and educators who want to help protect local waterways. Like residents all over the state of Minnesota, schools can sign up and sweep debris out of local storm drains.

Teach students to protect local waterways! Adopt-a-Drain is a great program for students and educators who want to help protect local waterways. Like residents all over the state of Minnesota, schools can sign up and sweep debris out of local storm drains.
 
In addition, some areas of the state have provided funding to offer free support materials to help educators implement the Adopt-a-Drain program in schools. This includes the City of Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Capitol Region Watershed District, the City of Edina, the City of Duluth, and Nine Mile Creek Watershed District. Visit Adopt-a-Drain K-12 to view  support materials and see if your local school is in this focus area. Teachers who sign up receive online training, newsletter support, access to online K-12 learning resources, printed classroom materials, and cool swag and incentives for themselves and their students! Please share this opportunity with teachers you know. You may also email k12@adopt-a-drain.org to inquire about purchasing these support materials in other areas.
