Weather With Rusty
Each year, Rusty Garrett visits schools across Central Texas to talk about tornado safety and hands out Project Tornado Booklets. The students are encouraged to take them home and share what they've learned with their families. Everyone needs to know what to do in case of a tornado.
KWTX and ESC Region 12 (Edlink12 Network) have partnered to bring you the Weather With Rusty videoconference sessions. Through the use of interactive videoconference technology, students will participate in Project Tornado and interview Rusty Garrett to learn about storm safety and severe weather in Texas.
