Green School National Conference

Ms. Nordgren and I attended (and presented at) this event in Virginia Beach, Virginia. It was exciting and inspiring to meet people from all around the country who are rocking sustainability education!

While in Virginia Beach, we had the opportunity to visit two Green Schools.

The first, College Park Elementary School, had a rain garden out front that has attracted wildlife such as hawks and even a fox.

The second school, The Renaissance Academy Alternative High School, is green AND teaches green industry skills to students!

We met the designer of The Renaissance Academy, Mr. Rob Berz, who gave us a personal tour of the facilities.

Wow! These excursions opened our eyes to the potentials of green schools.

Yes, please, we'll take one in Athens! Please help us make Coile a green school like these!
