Your school has room to improve. Your school needs a remedial course in environmental awareness. You can get started working with your fellow students, teachers, and school staff to improve your school's environment. Your first step, using this Environmental Report Card, is to evaluate your school's present performance. Every school is a small community of its own.
Schools create and dispose of garbage, contain potentially toxic materials, and use energy.
Your goal is to see how many of these steps your school has taken and to identify the ones it has not yet taken- but could consider. If you don't understand why one of the steps listed is a good one to take, discuss it with other students or your teacher and find out why before you mark this sheet. Then you can add up your school's total grade. You'll have a clearer picture of how well your school is doing and ways to make it more environmentally committed.
