An exciting new school option is coming in 2022! Our friends at Sisu Environmental School have a new page. https://www.facebook.com/Sisu-Environmental-School-104418331555148

Sisu Environmental School Our Mission: Delivering a bold education in the renowned Finnish style, empowering each child on their own unique, educational journey to become competent, creative and joyful learners.

Although NSA may be no more as a school, we are excited about the idea of this innovative new option for kids in the south metro where there are currently NO elementary charter options. Finnish education is a proven, child-centered option based on American innovation but not widely in use here in the states, despite its track record of success. Any amount could help Sisu reach its fundraising goal would help get them up and running and serving kids. https://gf.me/u/zakuxh

Seems like this happened just yesterday. It changed the way people who spend time in school buildings teach, learn and feel forever. If you can, please help to bring about change so that no family of students or their teachers will have to suffer this kind of tragedy again.

National Wildlife, always having our environmental back.

Getting kids outside has never been more important. That’s why we are excited to launch National Wildlife Federation's Green Hour in partnership with L.L.Bean to provide kids with safe, fun, and easy activities to do outdoors.

Each week will include new activities for connecting kids to nature—from creating a nature notebook to being a wildlife detective, and getting creative with leaves, nature’s opportunities are endless. Share your outdoor adventures with us using !

Need a study break? Get outside, get some exercise, some fresh air and help the river too!

Even with this snowy weather you can still get out there and clean your storm drain!❄️

Clearing the snow on and around your drain prevents potential flooding on your streets. Also, while the leaves hiding underneath the snow might be “natural” debris, they become pollution when large quantities hit the water as the snow starts to melt.

It's all connected.

We need to ‘see’ buffalo before we can restore them Buffalo were originally decimated to starve Indigenous peoples; now, their absence is starving out the land.

Some at-home green learning!
