Welcome to Framingham’s Cooler Communities Fair!

Framingham

2023Framingham Public Schools (FPS), in collaboration with the Cooler Communities Program and the City of Framingham is inviting all residents to Framingham’s second Cooler Communities Fair at

Harmony Grove Elementary School on Saturday, May 13, 2023, from 11am to 1pm.

FPS students will again show their amazing projects on climate change, energy efficiency, and related subjects, and Framingham’ sustainability committee will have lots of information for parents and community members on how to save on energy bills and live in more climate-friendly ways. There will also be free – and great! – food, ice cream as well as fun games and activities for children, and an appearance by the Framingham Public Libraries’ Bookmobile, if the weather allows. The event is free.

The Framing Cooler Communities program is  supported by the FPS Office of Equity, Diversity, and Community Engagement, the FPS Community Resource Development Department, students and faculty of various elementary and middle schools, the Framingham High School Environmental Awareness Club and the Sustainability Committee. Parents and families are encouraged to attend to learn about opportunities  to help reduce the community’s carbon footprint and their own utility costs.

Here is a mention of last year’s event in local media.

And here are two teachers speaking about last year’s fair.
