Greening Schools
The Deirdre Imus Environmental Health Center® places an emphasis on greening schools inside and out.
Red Bank Goes Green
The Red Bank Borough School District became the first school district in New Jersey to implement the award-winning Greening The Cleaning® program. Click here for story.
Since then several schools in surrounding districts have followed suit.
Schools we have greened include:
-
Red Bank Borough Schools, Red Bank, NJ
-
Willow School, Gladstone, NJ
-
Mercer County Community College, West Windsor, NJ
-
Corlears School, New York, NY
Pesticides in Schools
New Jersey schools are now required to comply with a new statewide pesticide reporting act to help schools minimize or eliminate the use of hazardous pesticides and inform parents prior to their use.
