Green Schools Program levels
Our Green Schools Program is structured into three levels.
Level One focuses on waste reduction and recycling. Level Two explores energy conservation. Level Three looks at water conservation. Each topic comes with a best practices guide.
Beyond Level Three, schools and districts can be recognized as “Sustaining” each year they sustain and build on Level One, Level Two, and Level Three practices.
We also provide further conservation topics for participants to explore.
