These educators are part of a powerful movement to make the world a better place by empowering students to be informed decision-makers equipped to solve meaningful challenges in their communities and beyond. Don’t just teach students about the world—teach them how to change it.” Mrs. Oliver’s GT group completed “One Ocean: Pollution and Our Oceans” as part of this project and certification.  They have also been invited to join a “Junior Water Walkers” program through National Geographic.
