Arlington School Leaders Explore Whole School Sustainability

Open to school leaders in the Arlington, VA public school system.

School leaders, administrators, and coordinators from Arlington Public Schools are invited to join CBF for a three-day immersive exploration of the Chesapeake Bay and the unique waterman community of Tangier Island. Through hands-on experiences, school leaders will explore the positive effects that environmental education has on mental health and well-being, student engagement, and the development of twenty-first century skills. Participants will design a successful school program that utilizes and benefits the local environment, promotes environmental literacy, and boosts academic achievement. Join us on the Chesapeake Bay to network and collaborate with other education leaders from the Arlington Public Schools system.
