SWEP partners with teachers, administrators, organizations and agencies in the Tahoe-Truckee region to provide environmental education and service learning opportunities to K-12 students. Our mission is to promote environmental stewardship by connecting students to their community and environment through watershed education and service learning. Our vision is that students of the Tahoe/Truckee region understand the environment in which they live and are empowered to take action in their community to make a positive difference. Students, together with community partners and teachers, work collaboratively to address relevant environmental and social issues.
