Macomb County Green Schools Program

Macomb County Green Schools Updates:

 

On April 16th, the Macomb County Board of Commissioners and MISD proudly celebrated the 127 schools which achieved Official Michigan Green Schools status for the 2012-2013 academic year.  Among the highlights were the announcement of Macomb County's Top School honorees, the presentation of a new category of awards recognizing superior applications, recognition of all schools including those which have been involved in the program for the past five years, and the announcement of the new Macomb County Green Schools logo which is student-designed, submitted by the Career Prep Center. 

All 2012-2013 participating schools received a newly re-designed, 3' x 7' beautiful outdoor banner.  This was made possible from the support and generous sponsorship of Macomb County Prosecuting Attorney, Eric J. Smith.
