• provides project(s) for students related to the conservation of local watersheds, the world's ocean, and/or special ocean areas, like national marine sanctuaries.

• provides opportunities for students, teachers, parents and friends to participate in a range of environmental and sustainable activities.

• provides learning programs and opportunities that reflect environmentally sustainable practices that enable all students to be environmentally active and committed "Ocean Guardians."

• provides ways for classrooms to promote best environmental practices within local communities, while at the same time projecting a positive image of the school itself.
