Ecoliteracy Programs

BCK's unique approach to education

Our ecoliteracy programs connect the industry of environmental science to the classroom, all while assisting municipalities in broadening their required outreach and education efforts and helping school districts comply with California waste reduction legislation.

​In contrast to programs that teach 
about environmental issues, students are immersed in investigating real environmental projects at their schools while applying their existing knowledge in a variety of content areas, including science and English Language Arts.

Additionally, our programs help students further develop career readiness skills in the areas of critical thinking and problem solving, accessing and analyzing information, collaboration, initiative, and effective oral and written communication.
