The policy states that “All Washoe County School District schools and other facilities shall implement programs and practices which are not harmful to or which limit the depletion of natural resources, create a culture that accepts fiscal responsibility for these goals, enhance building/facility performance, and foster a sense of citizenship in students by encouraging a focus on conservation and sustainability.”

The Washoe County School District is a sponsor for Envirolution’s Sustainability Tour, held during the WCSD Spring Break, March 26th and 30th, for students aged 12 to 18.
