Public, private, and Tribal PK*-12 classrooms, schools, and districts earn badges to receive recognition as a Sprout, Seedling, Sapling, or a Sugar Maple School. Green & Healthy Schools Wisconsin is administered by the Wisconsin Departments of Natural Resources and Public Instruction and supported by partners across the state.
