  1. Take inventory on what the school is doing now to address climate

  2. Ask the following questions about each of what is identified:

    • What need is it addressing?

    • Who is responsible for carrying it out? Is there accountability? Is this voluntary, or is the work involved recognized in some way?

    • What evidence do we have that it is effectively addressing the need?

    • Should we keep, modify, or abandon it?

    • How does it fit with other climate-related efforts, and how can we ensure that all the pieces fit together well?

  3. Get input from staff on what is in place and ideas for change

  4. Recognize and provide appropriate compensation or credit for the work of the climate team, and ensure that the team is reporting at all staff and schoolwide meetings.
