In this episode of Learning in Lake Oswego, we highlight the partnerships that bring sustainability and environmental stewardship to life in our schools.

For the past five years, LOSD has partnered with the Lake Oswego Sustainability Network, Oswego Lake Watershed Council, and the City of Lake Oswego’s Sustainability Advisory Board to host the annual Sustainability Resource Fair. What began as a showcase of sustainable building practices has grown into a vibrant community event, connecting dozens of organizations and offering hands-on learning for students and families.

We’re joined by two key partners in this work: Dorothy Atwood, who helps connect students with meaningful environmental learning experiences, and Leigh Campbell, founder of Shifting Gears/Gifting Gears, a program that redistributes donated bicycles to local youth. Together, they share how community collaboration is helping students learn, contribute, and take action.
