Testimonials From the Community
“Thank you for putting together so many wonderful resources for teachers!” Ann Santer, Mathematics and Science Coordinator, KCSOS
“The information I’ve gained through the CREEC Network has resulted in access to grants, classroom speakers, troubleshooting assistance for project work, new opportunities for professional growth, and tremendous camaraderie with like-minded educators and volunteers. Benefits extend far beyond my teaching objectives, with positive outcomes for the entire school community and the many businesses, organizations, institutions and individuals that have participated.”
Judy Sims, Kindergarten Teacher, Monte Vista Elementary School, Santa Barbara
“The CREEC Network has been tremendously valuable in helping set up a service-learning program teaming Cal Poly students with local area public schools to promote environmental awareness and stewardship. We are extremely fortunate to have an organization so adept at facilitating and brokering community partnerships.”
Bud Evans, Political Science, California Polytechnic State University
"CREEC Network has served as a focal point for environmental education in our area. It has helped raise awareness of opportunities benefiting both students and educators alike."
Julie Bursek, Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary, Ventura Office
“I find the CREEC Network email messages both inspirational and helpful. I often feel out of the environmental loop and isolated due to the demands of daily classroom routines so your messages help me to remember why I wanted to teach in the first place. It's very easy to get overwhelmed with the demands of the job and lose touch with current environmental issues (thinking globally, etc.). The work you do makes it that much easier for me to infuse my lessons with environmental ed. Thanks!”
Annemarie Vallesteros, Teacher, Los Osos Middle School, Los Osos
“Thank you for being on the cutting edge, bringing people together. The CREEC Network provides a valuable service to agencies and community groups by linking programs to ensure that needs are being met through: 1) a minimum of redundancy 2) a maximum of collaboration and cooperation 3) increased linking of environmental education programs to state standards.”
Dr. Lois Phillips, Gevirtz Research Center, University of California Santa Barbara
