Developed by science educators at The Ohio State University, and guided by OSU Extension 4-H Youth Development Extension Educators, each 4-H School Enrichment program is targeted to meet selected science proficiency goals identified in Ohio's State Science Competency model.   Students will learn important concepts through a variety of hands-on science, math, language arts, art, social studies and social skills activities provided through each  4-H School Enrichment Program.   

During 2007/2008 School Year, nearly 100 school classrooms working with nearly 3000 students participated in 4-H in the Classroom programs.  You can join the list of classrooms participating this school year.  

Each participating classroom will be charged an annual $30.00 program fee to participate in the Clark County 4-H School Enrichment Program.  This fee covers the cost of supplies, materials, books, and administrative costs associated with up to two separate programs.  You may use additional programs for an extra fee.  If your classroom or school is interested in participating in this program, please contact the Extension Office at 937-328-4607. We look forward to working with teachers and students together as we strive "To Make the Best Better" within the 4-H Program and your classroom.
