Description:

The Green Schools National Network (GSNN) is a non-profit organization that advances the national Green & Healthy Schools Movement by connecting like-minded and passionate education, non-profit, corporate and public sector individuals and programs. GSNN is the national umbrella organization that works collaboratively with others to improve education in the United States. Education for sustainability helps young people gain the knowledge, skills, motivation and hands-on experiences to make the world a better place for everyone and everything.

The GSNN serves as a clearinghouse for individuals interested in all aspects of green and healthy schools. The GSNN is dedicated to fostering collaboration and networking in a wide variety of areas. To name a few: promoting healthy foods in schools, developing energy efficient school sites, integrating nature into the curriculum, identifying design considerations for renovation or new school construction, recycling, and many other related topics.

GSNN is nationally recognized as the premier partner in advancing collaboration to integrate a green and healthy culture in schools to ensure that current and future generation of students are environmentally literate as well as practice and promote sustainability in their community.

GSNN offers "Find a School" and "State Networks" tabs on our website. The school finder provides links to schools by state that are engaged in "green" initiatives while the "State Networks" tab provides valuable access to the websites of state organizations dedicated to school greening. Many of these organizations also contain links and descriptions of schools that are focusing on incorporating more nature and environmental awareness into their buildings and curriculum.

Contact the Green Schools National Network to connect with others who are fostering the development of green schools throughout the country.
