School Programs

Several schools throughout Clackamas County have recently achieved Oregon Green School status. Special recognition goes out to Deep Creek Elementary and Sunset Primary, whose staff, students and parents have worked together to achieve Premier Oregon Green School status.

The Clackamas County Recycling Partnership (CCRP) is a cooperative of local franchised garbage and recycling companies, the Clackamas County Office of Sustainability, and these cities: Barlow, Canby, Damascus, Estacada, Gladstone, Happy Valley, Lake Oswego, Milwaukie, Molalla, Oregon City, Sandy, West Linn and Wilsonville. We provide schools with a variety of resources, waste reduction education and technical assistance. The CCRP also administers the Oregon Green Schools program in Clackamas County. See the links below to find out what opportunities and resources our office will provide free of charge to Clackamas County schools.
