Es la plabra "aledañas" que me da problemas traducir. Entiendo que se refiere a una tierra, etc que queda al borde de un pueblo y que le pertinece. Pienso traducirlo como "suburbian"

adjacent

All it means is schools right next to the reserve, not related to suburbia. They could be rural schools located next to a nature reserve.

bordering

bordering is a possible option:

The (education of the) butterfly in schools bordering the reserve.

I don't think suburbs would be appropriate here because that would sound as if the schools are just outside the city. What do you mean by butterfly?

Butterfly education in schools adjoining the reserve

"Schools near/bordering..." and "schools adjacent to the reserve" are also correct.

You can say "education ON butterfliesº or "education on the butterfly", but it is perhaps a bit less common.
