The Green Schools Recognition Program just wrapped up its eighth year! Through this program<\/a><\/span>, schools choose and complete a variety of earth-friendly activities throughout the school year. These activities earn the school points towards Green, Greener and Greenest levels of achievement, plus corresponding funding rewards for future sustainability projects.<\/p>

11 schools submitted their activities from 2023-24, with 201 activities reported across the district. LPS staff, students, families and community partners spent time in gardens, read from the Climate Action Bookshelf<\/a><\/span>, celebrated Earth Day<\/a><\/span> and more!
