What is the Green Schools Program?
Established in 2006, the Michigan Green Schools program is open to any K-12 public or private school in Michigan. To receive a “Green School” designation, each school must submit the appropriate application each year and meet the designated criteria. The intent of the Michigan Green Schools Program is to encourage students to participate in activities which help them learn about preserving natural resources, protecting the environment, and to promote energy efficiency and savings. Macomb County’s Green Schools Program is proudly coordinated by the Macomb County Board of Commissioners.
Why Participate in the Green Schools Program?
The Michigan Green Schools Program is a fun, educational initiative that encourages students to participate in activities that are good for the environment and promote energy efficiency and savings. Be sure to sign up for updates, at the top of the page, so you don’t miss program information and ideas. If you have something going on related to your Green School Program, please let us know so we can help promote it!

Green School Designations
On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, the Macomb County Board of Commissioners held its 18th-annual Macomb County Green Schools Awards Ceremony at the Macomb Intermediate School District. The celebration will continue as we join Oakland and Wayne counties at the Detroit Zoo on Thursday, May 1, 2025. The Board is pleased to announce the Macomb County Green Schools Program list of Green Schools Designations for the 2024-2025 cycle. There are 76 Green Schools representing Macomb County this year. The recognized schools not only remained committed to green education, but also showed their creativity in implementing the ‘green’ curriculum, demonstrating the deep-rooted nature of the Macomb County Green Schools program. We are proud of all our Green Schools’ efforts!
