The Oklahoma Green Schools Program
The Oklahoma Green Schools Program offers tips, funding sources, educational resources and sample curricula to help schools “go green!”
If your school is interested in inspiring students to take responsibility for improving the environment at their school, home, and in their community, the Oklahoma Green Schools Program is for you!
We offer state-wide environmental service-learning and hands-on inquiry based investigations in energy, environmental quality, school site, waste and recycling, and water. Students become leaders in the school and leaders in their own education.
