To kick-off 2018, Rainbow District School Board is challenging schools to conduct an EcoReview of energy conservation and waste minimization.
Education Director, Norm Blaseg, says green clubs will visit schools to document lighting, electricity, heating, cooling and recycling.
He adds the evaluations are required for certification in the Ontario EcoSchools program.
This particular challenge provides schools with a real-time assessment of their day-to-day environmental practices, Blaseg adds.
The deadline is Friday, January 26th.
