On April 22, Carver presented Seeds of Stewardship at Green Spark 2026.

After submitting a competitive proposal, Carver was selected to showcase our National Wildlife Federation Eco-Schools Green Flag action project during this nationwide virtual event, which highlights K–12 students turning ideas into real solutions for people and the planet.

Our students presented in the “Protecting Nature” session alongside schools from California, Pennsylvania, and Kentucky. During our five-minute presentation, students shared how we are connecting kids to nature and increasing biodiversity on our campus through native habitat creation, seed collection, invasive species removal, and stewardship of native plants. Following the presentation, students participated in a breakout session where they expanded on their work and answered questions from attendees.

Our Eco-Schools journey is grounded in student leadership and real-world problem solving. Presenting at GreenSpark was a meaningful opportunity to share our sustainability efforts, highlight student-led initiatives, and extend our impact beyond our campus.

This experience reflects the Eco-Schools framework by connecting learning to real environmental challenges and empowering students to take informed action. GreenSpark provided a platform for our students to step into leadership roles and contribute to conversations about building a more sustainable future.

Overall, participating in GreenSpark strengthened our school community, elevated student voice, and demonstrated how local actions can contribute to broader environmental change.
