New Interactive Field Site Maps are available on Google Maps 

Field Site Locations For All Schoolyard Projects

Thanks to Greta Vanscoy,our field site maps now include new schools who have submitted data for  the first time this school year.  We have also added distinctive icons for each project on our individual project maps below. To use the interactive features on these maps, please see  links and notes following the figures below. 

Clickable Interactive Maps are available on Google Maps at: 

Schoolyard Interactive Maps

After linking to Google Maps,  click on an icon to find links to the name and address of the school along with the Schoolyard Eco. data for that site. 

Note that to use the Google Map for field sites, you will need to click on the box to the left of the Project Title or  The "All Participating Schools" category in order for the site icons to appear on the base map. Similarly, click any checked boxes if you want to clear the icons in order to view an alternative field project map.

Congrats to those schools who have made the map!  

Some schools have begun projects but have not been able to submit data yet.  Once data is submitted for additional schools, we will add those schools to our maps.  Please report any inaccuracies  or updates to Pamela Snow.
