Request
for Proposals (RFP)
The
RFP is our design for a charter school that would encompass
the best of an environmental education focused charter
school. Those who are considering a charter should look
at this RFP and decide if this is what they would like.
If it is contact us for sponsorship and guidance. We will
consider other charter school proposals, but will give
priority to sponsoring schools that adopt this model.

Schools.
We sponsor charter schools who support and share our mission:

protect, improve and promote the enjoyment of the natural
environment through formal and informal education programs
