Advancing sustainable schools for all
June 2021
The Green Schools Conference (GSC) is the only national event to bring together all the players involved in making green schools a reality: people who lead, operate, build and teach in U.S. schools.
This year the Green Schools Conference will convene virtually over three half-days of programming, featuring inspiring keynotes, interactive education sessions and engaging peer group networking opportunities.
The conference will address topics such as design for sustainability education and social equity, healthy schools and COVID response, empowering student leadership, achieving climate commitments, and much more. Whether you are a teacher, school or district staff, educational leader, parent, student, building industry professional, or non-profit partner, the Green Schools Conference is the premier opportunity to learn and engage.
