Green Leader Training
Our Principal, Beckie Carbaugh, attended the MAEOE Green Leader Training on November 8, 2016 at the MAEOE Office in anticipation of applying for Green School status. The link below is the registration confirmation link for the Green Leader Training. She brought that information back to the teachers and discussed it at staff meeting. All teachers are aware of the on-going Green School application process. Attached are three staff meeting agendas to show our progress.
