In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, we want to celebrate and appreciate our wonderful teachers and educators whose hard work makes it possible for students to experience a NatureBridge program.

In this week's Lessons From the Field series, NatureBridge educator Nessarose Schear shares her experience working on the National Park Service restoration project of the Mountain and Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frogs in Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks, the sister parks of Yosemite.

Mara Dale, M.S., a Mentor Teacher at our Yosemite campus, writes about the partnership between NatureBridge and CalTeach.

With a love for both the mountains and the ocean, NatureBridge Yosemite Board Secretary Stephanie Yu shares her personal connection to nature as well as her passion for advancing diversity and inclusion in the field of outdoor environmental education.

Each year, NatureBridge honors a student who has demonstrated leadership, growth and a commitment to protecting our natural world as a result of a NatureBridge program. This year, we are thrilled to celebrate Kinzie Klein for her remarkable spirit and courage. Despite her Cystic Fibrosis, Kinzie never hesitated to take on a challenge in Yosemite National Park.
