My students work diligently to create a more sustainable environment within our high school. Using a program called Eco-School, we perform rigorous sustainability audits of our school.
To combat the issues we find, my Eco-School kids will grow hydroponic produce in class to support healthy lifestyles and more eco-friendly habits. They will use rainwater collection systems to purify their water. They will compost, create healthy eating initiatives, learn outdoors, and much, much more.
To do this, we use a Project-Based learning teaching method. They develop leadership and public speaking skills, explore their ecological footprints, and drive their own learning. Their knowledge of their personal environmental impact has increased substantially. Supporting our classroom supports a fully student-led, student-driven environmental goal that will help to foster future generations of environmentally conscious citizens.
