Science Teachers TEACH Literacy too!
Are you a K-12 educator who teaches literacy in some capacity, or a youth librarian?
If so, we would like to invite you to participate in a study conducted by Oakland University faculty and students that explores the impact of the U.S. sociopolitical context on classroom literacy practices and youth librarian practices.

Wildlife Education Grants
Funds collected from game and fish law convictions never leave the county where the fine occurred. The money is used to fund educational programs focused on fish, wildlife and conservation in the counties where the offense occurred.
​
All fine money collected by the AGFC is redistributed by the Arkansas Economic Development Commission's Division of Rural Services to schools and conservation districts in the county where the violation occurred in accordance with Arkansas Code Annotated 6-16-1101.
