Dosomething.org hosted a Green Your School Challenge last year. 5,404 schools and 141,000 students from all over the country participated. Areas of competition included recycling, energy saving, and green agriculture.

Get your school ready! This year’s competition begins on February 1 and continues through April 30, 2013. Schools will be judged in overall impact, participation, creativity, completed projects, and behavior change. Prizes include scholarships and green grants. For a full roster of registration guidelines and project ideas visit dosomething.org.
