Green Schools
What is a green school?
Green schools strive to achieve success in three pillars. Over 60 organizations in the United States and abroad use these pillars to describe their work on green schools, including the U.S. Department of Education’s Green Ribbon Schools award program.
Why green schools?

They teach students how to lead a changing world, and they support student understanding by modeling sustainable behavior through green operations and building practices.
