How are you incorporating your environmental projects into your school's curriculum?: 
One of our overarching tenants is respect, which includes respect for the earth. We teach respect in many different ways, including giving repect "bucks" which the students can cash in for prizes. The respect bucks are then recycled to give out again.
Accomplishments: 
A fourth grade student started a poster campaign to raise awareness about recycling and convinced the principal to call and order a recycling dumpster. She also convinced the student council to take all the teacher's recycling boxes to the dumpster each Friday.
