Abstract
This study lies in the need to better understand EE’s contribution to fostering environmental literacy of young students. In the coming years, students will be called upon to understand complex environmental issues and make informed decisions in their private and public lives. All this comes at a time when young people are less connected to the natural world (Mertz, 2010). This study used the Middle School Environmental Literacy Survey to explore the environmental literacy level of 6th grade students at an environmental charter school. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of environmental charter school participation on the environmental literacy levels of 6th grade students.
