The Reef Stewardship Foundation is continuing to develop its ocean literacy and climate literacy curriculum following the success of Project CORALS. The RSF is preparing a grant proposal to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and is in search of middle school and high school science teachers interested in an exciting educational research project that focuses on climate and ocean literacies and service learning projects to engage students in local environmental problems and solutions.

We are looking for teachers anywhere in the United States, so everyone is encouraged to prepare a letter of support or contact me directly if they are interested. We may not be able to accept all interested teachers, but will fund as many as grant funds allow.

Please see the attached recruitment letter for additional details. Due to a short deadline for submitting the grant, we must receive all letters of support by January 11th, 2011, so I encourage any interested teachers to contact me ASAP so we can work out any needed details.

Sincerely,

Brian Plankis
