The Sacramento County Stormwater Quality Program has a variety of hands-on educational programs. Below are a few of the programs we offer to the community:

Splash
Sacramento Splash is a hands-on, science-based program for Sacramento County students. Splash provides curricula and assistance for students to explore the diversity of life in our local creeks, vernal pool, and lakes, in the classroom and in the field. By studying the organisms that inhabit our local aquatic ecosystems, students gain awareness of water quality and watershed issues. For more information, please call Splash 916-364-2437
Classroom presentations
Sacramento County Stormwater Quality Program works
with the Sacramento Splash center to offer Splash in the Classroom
presentations which is a fun and interactive way to teach students about
stormwater pollution. Students learn about pollutants that harm our
waterways and how to play a role in protecting creeks and rivers. For
more information or to sign up for a presentation, please visit the Splash in the Class website or call (916) 364-2437
