It should evolve and progress, embedding sustainability within your campus community. In order to maintain your status as a EarthGen Certified School, you have two options: either certify in a new environmental category or recertify using the form below. Once you recertify, you and your Green Team elevate your award (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) to the Sustaining Level. For example, a Gold certification would turn into a Sustaining Gold certification. You must report on all categories you have previously certified in, but you only need to take action in at least one category to continue your status as a EarthGen. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a greener and healthier environment for your students!
