2012 Maryland Green Schools
Award Ceremony
The ceremony honors schools that successfully fulfilled the areas which
form the framework of the Maryland Green School Program:
professional development, curricular integration, best
management practices, community engagement, and celebration.
Newly certified schools and centers will receive the Maryland
Green Flag, a symbol of their continued commitment to
the environment. In addition, schools will be recertified
based on their continuing efforts. Since 1999, 398 or
18% of Maryland schools have achieved this significant
honor.
Environmental Literacy Bazaar
Learn about the many exciting programs and organizations offering environmental learning and resources for schools. With over 50 learning stations for all ages, the Bazaar is designed to empower youth in short interactive
learning sessions. Participants will learn to
apply knowledge at school, home and in their communities
to reduce pollution, decrease waste, increase habitat,
limit carbon emissions, and create healthy learning
and living environments.
Youth Leadership Development
The Alliance for Climate Education (ACE) will conduct Action Team Training sessions to teach young people how to implement their plans. Other activities to allow the sharing and distribution of ideas from young leaders are a series of presentations from student teams of actions implemented, a career speaker series, and school showcase demonstrating environmental impacts of Maryland Green Schools' activities.
Celebration
Entertainment will go on throughout the day at the Osprey Pavilion. "Go for the Green" Games are on the West Lawn by Cottontail Pavilion. Following a concluding address from Governor O'Malley (Invited) is a Dance to "Wake up America".
