Eco-Cycle's Schools Programs
Essential to Eco-Cycle's mission is teaching the next generation about recycling and the environment. Since 1987, Eco-Cycle has coordinated the Boulder County School Recycling and Environmental Education Program with funding from Boulder County, Boulder Valley School District, Eco-Cycle and various grant sources.
Our very own Cyndra Dietz has won another presitigous accolade: the Enos Mills Lifetime Achievement Award from the Colorado Alliance for Environmental Education!
Students throughout Boulder County have grown up with an unusual degree of environmental literacy thanks to Cyndra Dietz. She has worked as an environmental educator for 32 years, and since 1990 has directed the award-winning Boulder/Broomfield County School Recycling and Environmental Education Program, housed at Eco-Cycle.
