Milwaukee-Area Green & Healthy Schools Program

This webpage showcases the Milwaukee-area Green & Healthy Schools Program, which integrates environmental education, healthy facility design, and student-led sustainability initiatives. The program supports K–12 schools in developing action plans around topics like indoor air quality, water conservation, and waste reduction. It provides recognition for schools meeting benchmarks in health and sustainability practices, and encourages teacher and student leadership in the process. Educators, school leaders, and local government partners can use this as a model for launching or improving school-based environmental programs.
