Environmental Charter School PCO

The Environmental Charter School is a public, tuition-free K–12 charter school in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Through an innovative, eco-literacy-based curriculum, we grow active, engaged, empathetic citizens who are critical thinkers and purposeful agents of change. At its core, eco-literacy means all systems in the world (natural, social, and built) are interconnected, and the decisions we make as people in our communities and the world ripple throughout these environments. The mission of the ECS Parent Community Organization, as a model of sound environmental practice, is to build and support positive relationships between families, staff, the Board, and the community.
