Green Schoolyards Toolkit

In this toolkit, you’ll find resources to help cities, school districts and partners work together to envision and implement districtwide, equity-based, open-access green schoolyards. Components include case studies, funding options, planning and action guides from Cities Connecting Children to Nature, photos and videos, and tools to help assess and select sites for green schoolyards. Case studies and resources come from school grounds from around the U.S. in diverse communities of all sizes and types. While many of these tools were created with school district staff in mind, they can be adapted to support communities of all sizes, schools, or local community groups.
