ECO-SCHOOLS ANNOUNCED AS A GLOBAL INNOVATION IN EDUCATION & SUSTAINABILITY

HundrED.org has selected Eco-Schools as part of 100 inspiring innovations that are changing the face of K12 education today. Check out our Awards and Recognitions and read about our work in this impact story!

“I love the fact that each school owns its unique journey all the while enjoying the guidance of the Seven Steps. Integrating environmental work with the curriculum is also a good idea, as is involving the community, developing a school Eco-Code and recognizing schools for their hard work.”

Each school follows a Seven Step change process and empowers their young people to lead processes and actions wherever they can.
