About
Cuyahoga Valley Environmental Education Center - 10,342 children are serviced with overnight and day programs. During the school year, classes participate with their teachers in field trips and three or four day overnight experiences in the park. 44% of those students that attend the overnight experiences receive financial support from the conservancy, which allows children from low income homes to participate. The educational programs are curriculum based and supplement schools' core standards. Summer programs include day camps as well as summer academics and family oriented educational programs. A variety of short term employment opportunities are offered to those wanting experience in teaching and working in a national park.
