America’s Largest Classroom Get Involved Membership Criteria The public land management agency or education center must offer education programs for students at a field classroom located on federal, state or public lands. These programs must be developed in partnership with a local school or school district and designed to support established school curriculum and local standards of learning as well as public agency resource management objectives. The programs may be delivered with the assistance of community partners and volunteers, but a staff person must be permanently assigned as a point of contact. Programs must be offered on an ongoing basis; they cannot be one-time or once- a-year events. Preference will be given to those sites that demonstrate broad-based community support.
