Planning Track

Recognition Program Planning Track

The Planning track recognizes efforts by schools and districts to assess their facilities and plan improvements using recommended approaches. Schools and districts will complete a series of webinars to learn about assessment tools and can access direct technical assistance through group discussions and one-on-one meetings to help complete planning activities.

Submissions are closed.

Recognizing Schools and Districts

In the newly launched second round of recognition, the Campaign will recognize top participating schools or districts, in two categories: Energy Efficiency Plus Health or Emissions Reduction and Resilience.

Required Webinars

Sign up for either Energy Efficiency Plus Health webinars or Emissions Reduction and Resilience webinars

Schools must complete a final plan describing how topics covered in the webinars inform decisions to improve their school facilities. School district staff are allowed to sign up at any point in the process! If you've missed the any webinars, that is okay, recordings can be watched in place of attendance. We recommend attending live, however, to be able to participate in discussion and ask your questions real time. These webinar series are for schools and school district staff only.
