Westowne has earned the status of "Green School" in the State of Maryland! To qualify for the Green School Award, a school must meet rigorous criteria through which students develop the knowledge and skills needed to act on current and future environmental challenges. The program uses the environment as a framework for integrating mathematics, the sciences, reading, writing, social studies and the arts.

To every teacher who went to training and then taught students something new, to students who came home and asked their parents to start recycling, to parents who made phone calls and ran programs, to the Westowne administration who helped it all come together, thank you. The adventure continues!  Special thanks to Ms. Abby Bozman (faculty) and Sarah Montgomery (PTA).  For more information about the program, contact Sarah at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
