MDC welcomes new conservation educator to Boone County

Body

COLUMBIA, Mo. – The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) welcomes a new conservation educator to mid-Missouri. In his new role, J.R. Royston will work with educators in Boone County to introduce students to conservation. Royston brings a variety of education and natural resources experience to MDC, and he started as a conservation educator on Sept. 1.

J.R. holds a bachelor's degree in education from Central Methodist University and a master’s degree in secondary administration from William Woods University. He previously served as an admissions representative at State Technical College of Missouri in Linn and as a science teacher with Jefferson City Public Schools and Harrisburg R-VIII. He joined MDC as a resource management technician before moving into his current role.

“I am very excited about the opportunity to bring outdoor experiences to the residents of Boone County,” said Royston. “Being a conservation educator really excites me because it combines my background in public education and resource management into one role.”

Royston will primarily serve Boone County and the Boone County Nature School and can be reached at jr.royston@mdc.mo.gov.
