Educator Development Fund

The Forest School Foundation's stated Mission is to
"support the awareness, advocacy and administration of forest schools across the Southeastern United States....
To operate the highest quality outdoor programming for early learners in the region, and to support the training and professional development of forest school educators in the south.

Our Educator Development Fund raises funds to support teacher trainings, continuing ed and professional development, for not only the foundations teachers, but to provide equitable access to nature-based educational resources + trainings for interested educators across Western North Carolina + the Southeastern States.

Our team of highly-skilled educators believe in supporting and engaging the whole child, inside and out. Please learn more about our broader educational philosophies and values here, as well as our unprecedented teacher benefits.
