Recognition by Others  
     
   
     
The School of Environmental Studies was cited as one of three very innovative schools in 1997 in the Wall Street Journal in an article entitled "Schools Aren't Brick Boxes Anymore." SES was selected for a site visit by U.S. Assistant Secretary of Education Patricia McNeil in conjunction with President Clinton's public address on school modernization during the opening week of school in September, 1998. The American Institute of Architects also selected the SES as a model school environment. In addition, the SES was recognized as a school that exemplifies the features of Breaking Ranks, published by the National Association of School Principals. As this report was being concluded, the School of Environmental Studies was also selected by the U.S. Department of Education as a New American School.

In addition to formal recognition, the SES has had an impact on a large number of visitors (some almost every week) from throughout the U.S. and several other countries that have come to the school to learn about its design and operation as they plan to design a new school or make changes to an existing school.
