Sustainability Projects

Sustainable Jersey for Schools awarded Mendham Township Elementary School with Bronze Certification recognizing the district’s commitment to being an environment-conscious school district that has met the rigorous requirements to achieve certification.

To become Sustainable Jersey certified, MTES submitted documentation to show it had completed a balance of the required sustainability actions, meeting a minimum of 150 action points. In addition, each certified school had to create a “green team” and select at least two out of 11 priority action options. Action options included community education and outreach and student education about sustainability in Grades PreK-4.
