LPS Sustainability supports the district and the community by implementing environmentally responsible practices and providing engagement opportunities for young environmental stewards.
Our Work
LPS Sustainability focuses on a variety of sustainable initiatives across categories including utilities and transportation, outdoor learning, and waste. All of our work is based on a foundation of engaging students, staff, and the Lincoln community with each of our sustainability initiatives.
Lincoln Public Schools first adopted a Sustainability Policy in 2019, formalizing decades of effort in areas such as energy efficiency, recycling, and school gardens. The district’s Sustainable Building Guidelines ensure all construction projects on district sites uphold the same principles of environmental stewardship.
