Sky World School’s Post

I’m thrilled to share some highlights from Ellucian’s 2023 Impact Report. Beyond our solutions and services, we’ve made significant strides in creating a positive impact. Here are some key highlights: PATH Scholarship Program: The Ellucian Foundation continues to support students on their educational journey through the PATH Scholarship program. This initiative provides financial assistance to students facing economic hardship, ensuring they can focus on their studies and achieve their goals. 🎓 Greenhouse Gas Reduction: In 2023, we developed our first-ever comprehensive GhG reduction plan. Our target is to achieve a 25% absolute reduction in GhG emissions by 2025 compared to a 2019 base year across scopes 1, 2, and partial 3. Additionally, we’ve invested in climate projects to offset 100% of mandatory emissions from 2022. 🌿 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI): Last summer, we launched Ellucian’s DEI Council, bringing together colleagues from across the globe. Our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment remains unwavering. #HigherEducation #ImpactReport #StudentSuccess #ellucianlife

Recognizing the key role of education for a sustainable present and future.

If only one building type could be HEALTHY, I would vote for schools. Every aspect of a building impacts well-being, and schools are an opportunity to make the greatest impact on children's mental and physical health, the ability to concentrate and learn effectively, and provide a healthy environment that might be a respite from uncontrollable factors in young lives. During the recent White House Summit for Sustainable & Healthy K-12 School Buildings and Grounds, experts sounded alarm bells about how school outdated infrastructure is failing children, especially those suffering from asthma. 14 million school days lost per year due to asthma in the US alone is unacceptable.
