sustainable practices in the world. As they begin to grasp these concepts, we conduct a sustainability assessment of the school using the Sustainability Compass to analyze the findings. This data collection guides students in finding direction and feeling empowered to address sustainability issues within our school community.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encouraging students to embrace the diverse perspectives of the Compass points of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">economics<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">society<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nature,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> y <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wellbeing <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is key to deepening their understanding of complex issues and inspiring innovative solutions. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organizing the first Sustainability Week ever at DAS was an opportunity to get the school community excited to plant the rooftop gardens in the hopes of getting students to appreciate the value of growing their own food that can hopefully be used in their Life X class (the Finnish equivalent of Home Economics). <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The event successfully brought colleagues, students, and families together to explore sustainable practices. Seeing students aged 3\u201316 engage in activities like sprouting seeds, planting, and composting was rewarding. Building community and collaboration across our diverse community was a highlight of the week. So, the next step is to involve them in organizing issues under the Global Goals using a poster titled &#8220;What Can A 5th Grader Do?&#8221;. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students choose the issue they are passionate about, such as energy efficiency or waste reduction, and take action on their issue of choice throughout the year. Some of the actions include writing letters to teachers and administrators, making posters, and preparing and giving presentations to lower elementary classes and assemblies with the upper grades. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This approach allows students to align their interests and skills with sustainability, fostering a holistic understanding and empowering them to strengthen our school community.<\/span><\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22202\" src=\"https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-1024x819.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-1536x1229.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-2048x1638.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image_50382081-15x12.jpg 15w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 400;\">This year\u2019s school sustainability assessment covers areas like energy consumption, waste management, water conservation, and community involvement.

Integrating sustainability into our classroom is crucial in today&#8217;s digital age. By conducting school sustainability assessments, aligning actions with the Global Goals and the Sustainability Compass, and organizing immersive events like Sustainability Week, students learn to think critically, act sustainably, and drive positive change towards a more inclusive and sustainable world, giving them a richer perspective to understand their own school and local community.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d9fa36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2d9fa36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e04fdde elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"e04fdde\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6eecb94 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6eecb94\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Author<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-641561d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"641561d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a266af5\" data-id=\"a266af5\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e188aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-15788 elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"3e188aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/michelena-mcpherson-0699a8b8\/\" class=\"elementor-author-box__avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/compasseducation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Michelena-McPherson-288x300.png\" alt=\"Imagen de Michelena McPherson\" loading=\"lazy\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/michelena-mcpherson-0699a8b8\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-author-box__name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMichelena McPherson\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Michelena McPherson has been working with Compass Education for 7 years as a facilitator and member of the Learning Empowerment group.
