NAIS Green team, Green Schools Training student reflection

Oklahoma Green School Training:

The Green School Training was a helpful session, but it was like reading a manual. I applaud the team who put it together, but next just make some hands on activities to give us experience that maybe teachers could past down to their students. A lot of information would have carried on better, if they presented it in a lively way, but overall a good job.

Les Pace:
When I think of Mr. Pace, I got 4 words, Environmental know it all. This man knows what he is doing, and he can explain to people who have never even heard of the word environmental. He devotes his time to his community, and communities abroad. Mr. Pace lives a 2 hour drive from my school, and he came all the way to explain how to audit a school. He is very helpful, knowledgeable, and he gives you ways to save money.

NAIS Challenge 20/10:  Millennium Goal: Sustainable Earth
This year working with the 20/20 project was phenomenal. I discovered another country's point of view on being green in a school environment. It's opens a lot of minds to opportunities, that we can share, and eventually achieve, not only improving our school, but a strong relationship. The Turkish school and Casady were very alike and exchanging ideas eventually led to successful projects. Our relations grew, cultures are mixed, and how we all view the world is changed. This is a great experience, and I look forward to another great year.
