To help Indiana schools celebrate Earth Day 2025, the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) is offering free hands-on classroom presentations again this year to elementary students across the state.
Every year, IDEM staff visit schools to talk about their careers and share STEM-based lessons on air, land, water and recycling.
Classroom Earth Day presentations are available for elementary schools and vary in length from 30 to 50 minutes. IDEM professionals throughout the state conduct these presentations, sharing their experience and types of careers offered through IDEM. Teachers can choose from several interactive presentations focusing on recycling and reducing trash, how long trash lasts in landfills, watersheds and the water cycle and air quality.
In-person classroom presentations are available on a first-come, first-served basis throughout the month of April, and each school may request up to four presentations. Registration ends Feb. 21.
For more information on specific programs offered and to request a classroom presentation, visit idem.IN.gov/iee.
Educators may direct questions to IDEM’s Environmental Education & Outreach Coordinator at education@idem.IN.gov or 317-234-3165.
