The Gardner School Program works with 2nd and 3rd graders teaching them about the birds, worms, squirrels, leaves, etc. through fun games and activities. Green Campus Green Campus is dedicated to minimizing Harvard's impact on our environment. We encourage students to recycle, to be aware of their energy consumption habits and to streamline their use of energy and water. At present, we are also working on environmentally responsible purchasing in the dining halls, athletic fields, dorm crew, and offices. The Outdoor Subcommittee gives volunteers an opportunity to participate in outdoor projects where they can see immediate results of their actions through service trips to local rural areas, such as Fresh Pond Reservation.
Students spray mulch, clear litter, cut lumber, and compost.
