Our Clean School programs use a participatory and interactive workshop style and a solutions-based approach to environmental problems.
By promoting critical thinking, student engagement and a holistic view of the human-nature connection, we strive to deepen learning that will not only increase knowledge around these issues, but also foster environmental values and commitments among students.

“The kids loved playing with the solar panels and wind turbines. Some of this equipment could be expensive to purchase as a class set, so it is nice for the kids to have the opportunity to see these items in action.”
“It was enthralling. My students were on the seats of their pants throughout the entire performance. Now they discuss their lunches each day to make sure that they do not include litter that could harm animals.”
“Recently, my students have been very engaged in how to help our earth. This gave them more background knowledge to use when making decisions about what they can do to protect the earth.”
