## Flagler County Students Learning Marine Science, Ocean Conservation, and Environmental Stewardship Through Hands-On Education

(Flagler County, Fla.) – Flagler Schools has been named a Guy Harvey Conservation District for the 2025-2026 school year, recognizing the district’s ongoing commitment to environmental education, marine science awareness, experiential learning, and conservation leadership throughout Flagler County schools.

The designation highlights Flagler Schools’ participation in the Guy Harvey Conservation Education Program, which focuses on teaching students about caring for oceans, marine ecosystems, wildlife conservation, and environmental stewardship through classroom learning and hands-on educational experiences.

A presentation honoring the recognition will take place during this month’s Flagler Schools Board Meeting at the Government Services Building in Bunnell, Florida on May 19.

“**We are inspired by the work and commitment of the educators and schools in Flagler Schools that, through the Guy Harvey Conservation Education Program, promote marine science and strengthen conservation education**,” said Jessica Harvey, CEO of the Guy Harvey Foundation (GHF), the global non-profit organization that supports scientific research, advances education, and drives advocacy that protects marine ecosystems to keep the ocean a place for exploration for generations to come.

Through the Guy Harvey Conservation Education Program, educators — and by extension schools and school districts — can participate in regional professional development opportunities dedicated to environmental STEAM education, marine conservation awareness, and hands-on science learning.

Following their training in the program, participants become Guy Harvey Conservation (GHC) Educators who are then empowered with recognition, knowledge, classroom tools, and environmental education resources they can share with students to foster environmental awareness and contribute to a more sustainable future.

The program also offers classroom supplies and grants for educational field trips, enabling GHC Educators to enhance their teaching while helping students better understand ocean ecosystems, marine wildlife, and conservation values.

Open to all elementary, middle, and high school educators, the immersive and experiential education training program includes classroom materials, educational content, and science resources designed to inspire the next generation of ocean conservationists and environmental leaders.

“**The Guy Harvey curriculum has tremendously impacted Flagler Schools by equipping teachers with engaging training and meaningful marine science resources they can immediately bring back to their classrooms**,” said Heidi Alves, Flagler Schools K-12 Science Curriculum Specialist. “**Our students are developing a deeper understanding of ocean ecosystems and becoming responsible stewards of our marine environment. We are incredibly proud to be recognized as a Guy Harvey Conservation District and to partner in promoting marine science education and environmental stewardship across Flagler Schools.**”

Matanzas High School and Wadsworth Elementary School are currently recognized as Guy Harvey Conservation Schools. Additionally, 15 district educators are currently recognized as Guy Harvey Conservation Educators.

“**The commitment of school systems across the nation dedicated to environmental STEAM education creates a ripple effect as educators become catalysts for positive environmental change in the minds and actions of their students,**” Harvey added. “**Our goal is to educate and enlighten more than 50 million students and more than five million teachers globally with our educational initiatives.**”
