Sustainability for the future. Education for the present.
At GTG, it's not only about promoting awareness of the enviornment and how to "go green." It's about actively engaging students and teachers of all ages in a meaningful discourse that will impact not only their lives, but the health of the earth as well.
Our community teaching model couples high school student-teachers with elementary school students, creating a closer-knit local community between schools. Additionally, both teacher and student benefit from the GTG program, as each learn new ways to think about the environment and what it means to support its health. While we encourage high school students to serve as teachers, anyone can teach the curriculum.

For Educators
Every GTG lesson allows students the opportunity to practice their critical thinking, writing, and reading skills, in addition to exposing them to science and biological concepts in a fun way. Integrating GTG into your classroom curriculum is a great way to get your students thinking, and it supports the environment simulateously. Feel free to contact us for more information.
For Parents
If GTG is at your child's school, familiarizing yourself with the GTG curriculums is a great way to not only inspire the inner-green in you, but also to extend your child's learning and discovery beyond the classroom. We urge you to talk with your child about what he or she has learned in school through GTG, and to apply that newfound knowledge at home by involving everyone in the family in home greening projects - from turning off the lights when they aren't needed, to growing your very own organic garden. By completing or discussing new GTG projects as a family, the messages those projects communicate can mean so much more. Now, greening your home does not have to be chore.

For Students
Whether you're a student-teacher or a student, GTG can help you discover new ways of thinking about the environment, why we should respect it, and how we can accomplish our green goals. GTG lessons are fun to teach and learn from, and involve exciting, educational activities. Feel free to browse through our sustainable curriculums to see what GTG is really all about.
