2018 Forest to Classroom - Fire Focus
June 25-28, 2018
Ednyville, NC (Henderson County)

Thank you for your interest in the 2018 Forest to Classroom program where we will be focusing on fire! We will take an investigative look at fire science and learn about fire across North Carolina's landscape. Discussions will center around prescribed versus wildfires, fire as management tool, and how different state and federal agencies address the use or suppression of fire.  The chance of more large fire wildfire complexes will most likely increase in coming years, so we will also learn how we can protect our homes and communities.  Program will include field days, a trip to the 2016 Party Rock Fire location near Chimney Rock, as well as classroom instruction. Activities from Project Learning Tree and other curriculum will be used to help teachers carry back what they have learned into the classroom.

Because of the advanced nature of the topic and activities we will be sharing for teachers to take back to the classroom, the 2018 F2C is geared for middle and high school teachers (6th - 12th grade). Science, social studies, and technology teachers are preferred, but any subject area will be considered. Space is limited to 25 teachers.  Note: Teachers from outside of North Carolina are eligible to apply. Nonformal educators will be encouraged to apply beginning April 15th through a separate registration site.

Applicants will be notified of their application status by May 12, 2018. Upon selection,  all participants will be required to submit a $75 nonrefundable deposit and additional informational forms to complete the registration process. All lodging, meals, and travel during the program are provided.
