MCPS Environmental Literacy Plan
The Middlesex County Public Schools (MCPS) Environmental Literacy Plan (ELP) was built out of a
desire to create robust, outdoor learning experiences for all students. It is a community forward
approach that relies on collaboration between the school division and community partners who
provide a bridge to the natural resources in Middlesex County. The goals contained in the plan
ensure that across their school career, students will discover their local watershed, understand their
place in it, grow into active environmental stewards, and ultimately, feel equipped to enter any
environmental field.
