The programs we provide are created to act as a supplement to the learning that is already happening in the classroom.
By using the University of Nebraska Lincoln's "Learning by doing" curriculum, school enrichment sessions can help
teachers engage students and improve the learning process while meeting Nebraska State Board of Education standards.
Curriculum used in School Enrichment is developed at the University of Nebraska, Other Universities, or by the National
4-H Council.

School Enrichment Presenters
The purpose of the SPIN Program is to promote Washington County 4-H School Enrichment programming. At the conclusion of the 4-H School Enrichment program, teachers can opt-in to do a special project with their classroom related to the programming. For every project that is turned in to be displayed at WCF, the teacher receives a $0.50 credit to be redeemed for school enrichment programming the following year. The Washington County Fair Board sponsors the SPIN Program.
