A brainchild of the youth organization Check Your Head, the Sustainable Schools program teaches youth about sustainability and global issues with a focus on improving their schools. King George Secondary students installed solar panels on their roof and Lord Byng students built their own compost.

Thanks to the support of Vancouver Foundation, the program will expand to more schools in the future.
