Green Campus Initiative
Land & Water Management
The Lawrenceville School is surrounded by hundreds of acres of School owned, preserved, forests and farmland that offer boundless educational, economic, and ecological potential. Through the Green Campus Initiative, the School will research and implement intelligent strategies for forest stewardship, agricultural practices, habitat protection, and appropriate conservation and restoration practices -- all while mindful of the campus' designation as a national historic landmark. In addition to providing educational and economic value, these lands will be managed in a way that maintains the integrity of natural systems, preserves open space, wetlands, and critical habitat for wildlife. This is especially important given the School's location at the lowest point in the watershed with two important stream corridors flowing through the property.
