Rising to the Challenge
ACE STAFF
|February 19, 2010

I just returned from The Eaglebrook School in Deerfield, Massachusetts. The students there are rockin’ the Green Cup Challenge, doing some awesome projects. They have a garden, are composting, and are changing their eating habits to eat more local foods in the cafeteria. Their sustainability team is collecting plastic bottles thrown away to educate their peers about waste. Students are building a solar car and working to put solar panels on their new gym. Plus, they have a wind turbine!
Check out these sweet videos they made about their Green Cup Challenge efforts:
