The Oklahoma Green Schools Program is a site offering tips and programs to help all Oklahoma schools go green. They cover the important topics like energy, water, waste, recycling, environmental quality and the school site. The idea is that any school can go green and they are very correct.
It is well known by now that green schools create an excellent tool for teaching sustainable living to our children. They also provide a healthier environment leading to higher test scores. The energy savings is a positive factor for the cities and school districts.
Some schools you may recognize are already a part of this Green Schools Program. Included in these are Tulsa Memorial High School, Norman High School, Keystone Adventure School, Inola Middle School, Edmond Memorial High School and Beggs Middle School.
