The San José Go Green Schools Program was launched in 2005 and recently received permanent funding from the City of San José. It is partnered with the Go Green Initiative, an innovative, comprehensive environmental program for K-12 schools endorsed by the City of San José City Council in 2007.

San José Go Green staff connect K-12 schools in San Jose with free recycling supplies and other green resources, encouraging them to take up Go Green at whatever level they choose: whether it may be starting a school recycling or composting programs, launching environmental education, buying green, or evaluating school environmental practices that impact student health.

Services to San José K-12 public and private schools include:
