EcoSchools Canada
The Toronto Catholic District School Board believes in the critical role that our Catholic schools play in promoting environmental responsibility and in providing leadership and direction for the protection and conservation of the environment. Through our partnership with
EcoSchools Canada, a registered charity with the longest-standing and largest environmental certification program for K-12 schools in Canada, the TCDSB can offer students unique opportunities to learn about their ecological footprint, and the ways they can reduce their impact on the Earth.
The vision of EcoSchools Canada is to make every school an EcoSchool. The program nurtures student leaders, reduces environmental impacts of schools and builds sustainable school communities.
