Putnam Valley Middle School is getting green everyday. Their goal this year is to make their students stewards of the environment who in turn will make a local and global impact.
Along with recycling and composting, they are collecting money for solar panels. What a great way to reduce their carbon footprint. Click here to read about the fundraising for the environment at Putnam Valley MS.
Treehugger.com features our school of the week on their website. Owned by The Discovery Channel, their website gets 4.7 million page views a month. Read the Treehugger article about Putnam MS.
If you would like your school to be considered for the "School of the Week", please email Amy Snyder at newsletter@gogreeninitiative.org. Tell us what your school has been doing to Go Green and send along a few pictures of your students "in action." Pictures cannot be larger than 2 MB.
Putnam Valley Middle School, we hope you keep getting green. Way to go!
Sincerely,
Jill Buck Go Green Initiative |
