Summit Registration Begins Feb. 9th

Please join us for the 16th annual Oregon Green Schools Summit in Eugene on Monday, April 9th, where you’ll find opportunities to network with other schools from around the state, share your school’s great ideas, and learn techniques to help you reach your resource conservation goals. This year we’ll have an emphasis on climate change, an issue that affects us all and that we all have the power to address. Continental breakfast will be served, but be sure to bring your own waste-free lunch!
