The Green Schools Conference (GSC) is the premier education and engagement opportunity for leaders and advocates who are passionate about the future of healthy, sustainable schools throughout the country and around the world. GSC is the only event to bring together all of the players involved in making green schools a reality: the people who lead, operate, build and teach in our nation’s schools.

Collaboration and innovation are necessary ingredients to transform schools into healthier, more sustainable places to learn, work, and play. This year, the pandemic may be preventing us from meeting in person, but we’ve created a stellar virtual experience that will allow us to come together as we work to advance the three pillars of green schools: positive environmental impact, increased health and wellness, and environmental and sustainability literacy. Register today! Visit greenschoolsconference.org for more, including scholarship information.
