Build a strong EcoTeam
Both elementary and secondary EcoTeams can benefit from mentorship throughout the school year. It builds strong student leadership, capacity, and a succession plan for future years.
Tips:
- Have green mentors conduct energy and waste monitoring together to support the training of new members.
- Create a reading-buddies program that focuses on environmental books, or have older students plan and facilitate an event, with fun activities for younger students.
- Secondary-school mentoring can be a great way to teach EcoSchools tasks, such as recycling or mulching trees.
- School-to-school mentorship is an excellent way for seasoned EcoSchools to share EcoTeam tips and program ideas with other schools.
