Sustainability Efforts

The 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 School District has a Sustainability Strategic Plan that reflects the voices of the entire 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 Schools community. It sets out goals, objectives and specific actions to mobilize our efforts to:

  • increase our climate action response, and
  • further empower youth in the District to be the leaders of today and tomorrow in sustainability.
