Climate Action Schools
NEISTE Commits to Climate Action Education
We know to tackle the climate crisis, we will need the hands, hearts, and best ideas from every person at every age from everywhere. NEISTE is proud to partner with Take Action Global non-profit to offer the Climate Action Schools Program for New England PreK-12 schools.
Ready to take action for the planet through project-based learning, global collaboration, digital agency and environmental justice? We’d love to invite you to join our NEISTE Cohort for the 2022-2023 school year! Funding guidance, supports, and scholarships available (cost per school ranging from $0-$9,800).
Each participating school will:
Be matched with three other global schools for virtual exchange and guided action
Engage in environment across-the-curriculum activities enabling students to use edtech for a purpose
Integrate social-emotional learning, wellness, innovation, and student-centered practices in teaching and learning
Participate in tree planting experiences, school climate audits, Global Earth Day Celebrations
Access school-to-home and school-to-community outreach opportunities and an educator community portal with professional development and teacher certification
