Josh Emanuelson, Little Beaver Creek Watershed coordinator for the Columbiana County Soil and Water Conservation District, addresses Southern Local fifth-graders and juniors who will partner for a study on the population decline of the Eastern Hellbender Salamander. The amphibian is currently on the state endangered species list and students will record data and seek solutions to bring the salamander back from the edge of extinction. The project is a joint effort between the Columbiana County Educational Service Center, which secured grant funding, SilverApple Inc. and CCSWCD and also involves students in the Crestview Local School District. Findings will be presented at a celebration of learning event in mid-May. (Submitted photo)
