What is the Green Schools program all about?
Clark County Green Schools works with all local public and private schools in their sustainability efforts. We’re here to encourage environmental leadership and give students tools to implement change in their schools.
Waste Reduction Education
We provide assistance to boost waste reduction education and awareness in schools, providing recycling containers, as needed.
Composting & Recycling Assistance
We’re here to assist with food waste composting and recycling in cafeterias, offering education, containers and sort tables.
Environmental Certification
We connect schools to EarthGen (formerly Washington Green Schools), a statewide environmental certification program.
