It highlights school systems that support waste sorting, water conservation, energy efficiency, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, ethical procurement, and school gardens.

Published sustainability in schools article

Sustainability In Schools Isn’t Just About ‘Green’ by Bridgitte Alomes | Nov 25, 2019. The article says environmental and sustainability literacy must be embedded throughout school culture from the ground up, starting from early learners through every grade level, and cannot be tacked on with extra-curricular activities or summer camps.

Highlighted social and community care

Creating a strong culture of environmental responsibility involves other focuses besides environmental education; it’s about social and community care as well. Social and community care means consistently caring for each others health and well-being, building the expectation within every age group of kindness, respect and self expression, and creating a space for children and their needs.

Described OPUSD sustainability measures

Oak Park Unified School District has reduced its landfill contribution by implementing waste sorting stations for compost, recycling, and landfill, with school meals only served in recycled and recyclable packaging. Its progressive policies include improving waste management, increasing water conservation and energy efficiency, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Reported ethical food sourcing

The food itself follows ethical procurement practices: only sourcing organic and pesticide-free produce via environmental management practices that protect the soil, air, and water. They purchase at least 25% of produce from within California; and preferably within a 250-mile radius of Ventura County and ideally from small family farms under 500 acres.

Noted school garden expansion

OPUSD’s own school gardens are being expanded to provide organic and pesticide-free produce for use in the School Meals Program.
