Mission: GreenStep Schools encourages and supports schools' efforts for substantive action and achievement of their sustainability goals through the implementation of best practices and sharing of stories and outcomes.
Vision: Sustainability is the norm for all Minnesota Schools.
Picture this: One step at a time…, teams of schools, districts, students, parents, and a supporting community of volunteers, non-profits, businesses, and local and state government agencies all working together to help schools and their community take actions and build their capacity to meet the challenges and opportunities of the future: preparing children for a changing economy, protecting our environment and community health, and harvesting the benefits of a clean energy future—all with guidance, assistance, and recognition from MN GreenStep Schools.
