The California Green Ribbon Schools recognition award honors schools, school districts, and Institutes of Higher Education for excellence in resource efficiency, health, and wellness, and environmental and sustainability education. The recognition award is part of a larger effort to identify and communicate practices that result in improved student engagement, academic achievement, graduation rates, and workforce preparedness; and reinforces federal efforts to increase energy independence and economic security. 

Margartia received a Bronze level award. Margarita joins Crowne Hill Elementary, Red Hawk Elementary, and Temecula Valley High in the 2018/2019 school year as TVUSD's four schools to be honored with this award! 

This is quite the accomplishment and one we hope to get more schools involved in, in the coming years!
