First meeting was a success!
Notes from first meeting – 4/10
· Creating a mission for the group – something about promoting sustainability and taking action in St. Louis schools
· There is some interest in exploring the LEED Associate accreditation for a teacher. Interest in a study group, what would it mean for a teacher? Teachers could be a resource for their districts when it comes to design and health, etc. in their schools.
· Looking to create a list of sorts, a place to compile resources for teachers in St. Louis to utilize. We can put this on the blog.
