We believe that today's students will need to fully understand the consequences that individual and collective actions produce on a global scale. Students are given opportunities to experience collaborative, research-based projects that will improve our local and global environments.

The Pegasus Environmental Sustainability program incorporates Earth Systems Science, Global Economics, Social Studies and Environmental Field Studies into a curriculum that allows students to make cognitive connections about the world around them on every level of being. We develop our students’ sense of the planet we live on, introducing concepts of Global Sustainability beginning in preschool and spiral these concepts through their Middle School years.

• The "Kinder-Garden:" Pre-K through 4th grades experience hands-on, environmental field studies while caring for an organic garden supported by a science-based curriculum. 5th grade students learn lessons in global sustainability and are in charge of our campus recycling program, helping to educate lower school students about recycling on campus and at home.

• Greening the Campus: Our school is striving to be the greenest we can be. All paper, bottles and cans are recycled on campus, by students. The proceeds go to help our 20/20 partner school, The Riverside Academy in Kericho, Kenya. We also accept used household batteries and CFL bulbs from our Pegasus community that are then taken to our local hazardous waste facility to be disposed of properly. Additionally, through our Vision Committee work, we are researching ways to green our facilities even more, through the possibility of solar panels on some of our buildings, healthy classroom furniture and fixtures, green cleaning products, waterless urinals, and much more.

• Global Education: NAIS 20/20, global partnerships with other schools help our students connect with other students on a global scale, bringing their reality into our hearts and minds. Some of the topics we have researched are global water deficits, deforestation, and climate change.

• Green Committee and Green Team: The Green Committee is a parent and faculty based committee focused on bringing awareness to our school concerning environmental news, research, events, and reference material. Our largest event we host is International Earth Day and Entrepreneur World Market, on or around March 20 each year. We also participate in Coastal Cleanup Day each year and emphasize the care needed to protect our local watersheds as well as the global water cycle that we are all dependent upon. The Green Team: is a student club on campus meeting one to two times per month to discuss the greening of our campus, sustainability concepts and also help with our campus recycling programs.
