The Squam Lakes CLE is a collection of educators from schools, 4-H, libraries, and more who work with middle/high school age youth in Holderness, NH and the surrounding towns. We share ideas/resources to enhance STEAM, climate, and data literacy education. We also develop funded connected learning projects in which multiple organizations provide different educational experiences surrounding a central topic for the same population of youth. The group meets quarterly throughout the year and members are compensated for their time.
