Celebrating Achievements and Looking Forward to 2024/2025

As we reflect on Eden Education’s 2023/24 school year in the US, we’re proud of our team's many accomplishments with the help of local students, teachers, and staff. 

Highlights from the 2023-24 school year

Here’s a taste of what we accomplished:

Scholarships

Thirteen graduating High School students from our host communities in Upstate New York were awarded a total of $17,000 through our 2024 Green STEAM Scholarships. Each was chosen based on academic merit, demonstrated school leadership, community service participation, work experience, and statement of goals and aspirations. 

Field Trips

69 local junior high, high school and college students ventured to the Cedar Hill and Mohawk View community solar farms in Schodack, New York, and Fultonville, New York respectively.  

In-school workshops

We presented five in-school workshops at two schools. We participated in a local elementary school’s Earth Day celebration and led the students in creating pollinator-friendly wildflower seed balls using clay, soil, seeds, and some water. We enhanced the Power Your School workshop content to be suitable for high schoolers as well as elementary students. We’ve worked with 268 students during in-school workshops.
