Water Quality Forum

Educational Initiatives

The Water Quality Forum strives to educate community members of all ages and occupations about the streams and rivers in the East Tennessee region and involve these people in activities that protect and improve the health of local watersheds. In keeping with these goals, the WQF partners conduct ongoing K-12 water quality education programs and special projects and events.


Interested in seeing how data collected by students will be displayed?


Collecting stream chemical data

As a part of the Adopt-A-Watershed Program, students collect information and data on their school's watershed.   "School Pages" will give students an opportunity to display the results of their watershed investigations.  INFORMATION AND DATA CURRENTLY DISPLAYED UNDER SCHOOL PAGES ARE MOCK AND ARE FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY!  Photos were randomly selected and are not true to their caption.

We plan to involve classes in entering data into the website during the Spring Semester, 2003. At present, the South Doyle High Ecology class is field testing this site for us, with students entering data they have collected from the Stock Creek Watershed.
