Located on 11 acres in north Wichita, Earhart Environmental Magnet School serves approximately 375 students between kindergarten and fifth grade. Earhart's environmental program has been in place since 1972, and combines environmental education with a strong foundation in reading, mathematics, and writing. We officially dedicated our new environmentally conscious building on Earth Day, April 22 2009. The new building has large windows for natural lighting, automatic lights and temperature gauges that turn off lights and adjust room temperatures when sensors show the rooms are empty. Our school also has an environmental learning lab, recycling alcoves in the school, a neighborhood recycling center and many places outdoors for learning opportunities. Our new Earhart Environmental Magnet was featured in the October 2008 issue of Urban Educator , the national newsletter of the Council of Great City Schools. The story is about "green" schools and how more schools across the country are using "green" designs and concepts. The article features a photo of the new school. A link to the October issue of Urban Educator can be found here. http://www.cgcs.org/UE/UEOct08.pdf The story is on page 6.
