10th Anniversary Highlights
To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, Sustainable Jersey for Schools launched a statewide video contest inviting schools to showcase the impact of their sustainability efforts. Schools submitted 60-second videos on Instagram or Facebook using the hashtag #DecadeofImpact.
Awards of $1,500, $750, and $500 went to the three schools whose videos received the most likes.
Congratulations to the winners:
- 1st place: Juan Pablo Duarte - Jose Julian Martí School 28, Elizabeth Public Schools
- 2nd place: Ocean Township Intermediate Middle School, Township of Ocean School District
- 3rd place: East Amwell Township School, East Amwell Township School District
Thank you to everyone who took part and helped celebrate a #DecadeofImpact.
