Education Teachers & Students
Each year, Grafton County Conservation District (GCCD) sponsors a poster contest for fifth-grade students in Grafton County. This includes 4-H groups and home-schooled students at the fifth-grade level. The conservation theme is selected by the National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD) and used by conservation districts around the country. The Grafton County winning poster is entered in New Hampshire Association of Conservation Districts (NHACD) state-wide poster contest, and that winner goes on to compete in the national contest. GCCD supplies educational materials produced by NACD for all participating schools. The theme for the 2009 Poster Contest is Dig It! The Secrets of Soil. Congratulations to Kassidy Patione, Haverhill Cooperative Middle School, 2009 Poster Contest Winner
