The New Jersey Pinelands Commission is happy to announce that is it now offering in-class education programs pertaining to the Pinelands.
The Commission's Public Programs staff is available to visit your school, upon request and pending our availability. These programs are approximately 30 to 45 minutes in length and provide a general overview of the New Jersey Pinelands and the Pinelands Protection Plan, along with a question-and-answer session that
encourages student participation.
Presentations are in a PowerPoint format that includes many Pinelands images. Discussion will be focused on the importance of water and the natural, historic, and cultural resources of the region. These programs are geared for grades 4-6. However, the program can be adjusted to accommodate any age group or grade level.
The goal of this program is to raise awareness, appreciation and further stewardship of the Pinelands by exposing students to this unique and special part of southern New Jersey.
