Sustainability at Portland Public Schools

Portland Public Schools is recognized nationally and internationally for its commitment to sustainability, both within the classroom and operations. The District’s sustainability team is our Resource Conservation Specialist, our Energy Specialist, and our AmeriCorps member who work in partnership with students, teachers, staff, parents, businesses and community organizations to design and implement award-winning programs and projects covering a wide range of topics addressing the Triple Bottom Line (environment, equity and economics).

Within this section of the website you can find information on these programs and projects, as well as resources for how your school can become more sustainable.
