Everyone lives in a watershed. Whether, when someone describes their community, they only mention their address, the landscape, or their neighbors, what should also be mentioned is their local and expanded watersheds. As everyone lives in multiple watersheds, they are affected by them, whether they are positively affected by the benefits of healthy watersheds, or they are negatively affected by the mistreatment of their local watersheds. As these watersheds can heavily influence human activity and health, the health of other organisms and the economy is also affected both positively and negatively depending on the state of the watersheds. The importance of watersheds to many facets of life and U.S. happenings is astronomical, yet how can this be enforced if the next generations are not educated about watersheds? Researched after the general definition of a watershed, the benefits of healthy watersheds, and the mistreatments of watersheds are how prevalent watershed education is in Pennsylvania schools currently and how they are being taught, and suggestions for teaching children about the mistreatments and preservation of watersheds. Though watershed education can be expanded upon, Pennsylvania schools, such as local schools to the Millersville community, are already starting this by partnering with Millersville professors and their students. This is further explored, as in what schools can do more of, and where other schools can start. Also explored are how future general education elementary teachers are prepared to instruct students about watersheds, which prioritizes reference back to the involvement of Millersville courses and professors in local school districts. Finally, the opinions of teachers on teaching about watersheds in neighboring school districts of Pennsylvanian and Virginian school districts are accounted for. Due to barriers such as a lack of science education in undergraduate and graduate courses, and strengths due to digital 4 resources provided about watershed education, educators within these areas feel differently about their preparedness, and overall ability, to effectively teach about watershed education. These views must be acknowledged, as they exist especially throughout Pennsylvania, to teach and explain to these educators why it is so crucial to teach about watersheds, and how there are attainable ways to do it.
