What Others Are Saying About Us
We continue to talk about using energy safely. The program is engaging and meaningful for the students and they understand more about energy safety afterwards. Some families rely on the schools to teach their children about safety and so a program like this one is invaluable. The mercaptan stickers are always a hit with students. The stinky smell is memorable and gives them a great conversation starter for when the get home!
Elementary Teacher
We will really focus on the safety and the making natural gas for nonrenewable and renewable resources standards. It is a great way for students to connect beyond the classroom to something we are learning in science.
Elementary Teacher
The kids were very excited about playing the online games. The material is real-world information that students will need to be safe in future situations. I would like to participate in the program each year.
