The CBS & EcoZone Green My School Contest has completed green makeovers at three grand prize winning schools, one in each of the San Francisco, Miami, and Chicago regions.  In addition to the three makeovers, the program provides a sustainable environmental program for all participating schools within each region.

In total, 45 schools participated in the contest. Each participating school submitted a short standard submission form and a creative response exploring what being green means to them and why their school should receive a green makeover. Miami Northwestern Senior High School is one of the three winning schools.
