The ACP was awarded a grant in 2007 by the New York State Biodiversity Research Institute to fund the development of curriculum materials related to biodiversity. A workshop was held in 2007 and a second one is planned for 2008.

Teachers are invited to attend this FREE summer workshop with meals and lodging provided, with the opportunity to create materials to use in your own classroom that address the topic of biodiversity and meet NYS Educational Standards. A stipend will be provided upon completion of the project.
