According to Lower School science teacher Jenn Carleson, who is on lead with Green School initiatives, we were awarded "green" status for 2020-2021 based on a point system. The lower school has been certified in the past, led by Stage IV teacher, Scott Vartanian.  This year has been very low profile because of COVID - just maintainance of programs that have run in the past, including implementing Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, maintaining native gardens and wildlife homes on campus, and teaching classes with environmental themes.  

Congratulations to the Lower School!
