Event Description

High Performing, Healthy and Cost Reducing Facilities – Developing a Practice of Sustainability in Your School District

School districts across the state are seeking more information to leverage their facilities to excel in energy performance, healthy educational environments, and sustainable school practices. 

Several different mini-sessions, based on the US Department of Education’s Green Ribbon School program, will drill down into topic areas including reducing environmental impact and costs associated with water and energy use; establishing healthy school environments through assessment tools and effective design of interior environments, lighting, food service, and material selection; and creating a sustainable school community through environmental literacy initiatives resulting in a school sustainability culture.  

This seminar will provide participants first-hand knowledge how to take your school district and learning environments to the next level of sustainability performance and community engagement.
