The McDuffie Environmental Education Center (MEEC) is a
collaboration between the Georgia Department of Natural
Resources, the McDuffie County Board of
Education, CSRA Resource Conservation and Development
Council (RC & D), the Watson-Brown Foundation and CSRA RESA. This
project provides teachers a unique site to take students
for a hands-on outdoor experience. Lessons are tied to
the Georgia Performance Standards in this diverse
biologically rich site.
The McDuffie Environmental
Education Center provides students with stimulating,
outdoor learning experiences about the ecology of our
wildlife, water, soils, and forests and the stewardship
of these important natural resources.
The MEEC offers three diverse habitats, two trails, a
hands-on self-directed discovery room, indoor classrooms and several
outdoor classroom areas. Two certified teachers
are on hand to coordinate instruction.
