Howard Academy is committed to sustainability. We foster knowledge, respect, and care for the environment and aim to understand our impact on it. Students learn about the environment at an early age.

Our Early Childhood students learn about gardens and how they grow, water conservation, alternative energy, and the three R’s–reduce, reuse, and recycle—and help collect recycling. This regard for our environment continues into grade school, where teachers empower students to play an active role in the Howard Go Green initiative.

Students spend time learning the science of climate change and alternative energy. Each April, Howard Academy celebrates Earth Day and our green efforts with a time full of activities focusing on being an environmentally conscious school community. Our students plant herbs and bulbs in the garden, our upper level students initiate a beach clean up event in Veracruz, and our Early Childhood kids conduct a march around our school. All students in all grades lend a helping hand in this incredible week.
