We're proud to share and celebrate the efforts of the Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) schools that took part in the EcoSchools program in the 2024-25 school year.
EcoSchools in the WRDSB
EcoSchools supports teachers and students with addressing the UN Sustainable Development Goals through environmental action. WRDSB schools have been participating in EcoSchools since 2008, and we've grown to 19 certified schools in 2025, supported by the Sustainability Steering Team.
