The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Schoolyard Habitat Program is proud to announce the availability of the brand new Schoolyard Habitat Project Guide.

This is your roadmap for transforming your school grounds into a destination that will engage the entire school community in habitat restoration. Once you use this howto guide, your school community will connect to the natural world, not by sitting inside and looking out, but instead by being outside and looking deeper.

This simple guide will take you and your students through each step of the process: planning, installing and sustaining a project. This is not a book about why schoolyard projects are important; but a guide on how to make the best one suited for your site. The guide is available in a downloadable format online at : “Schoolyard Habitat”
