About the Organization

Durham Academy signed/approved a Sustainability Commitment in fall of 2023 aiming to decrease our waste and carbon emissions and to increase education about sustainability and biodiversity on our campuses. Since planting a small Pocket Prairie in our inaugural Biodiversity class (spring semester 2024), we are expanding to other parts of campus – planting natives with lower schoolers who are learning about the benefits of native plants and pollinators, and creating an “outdoor classroom” learning space with native plantings.
