The founders of the Calgary International Pre-School (CIPS) are strong believers in the Bright Green environmental movement. Which is an ideology based on the belief that the union of technological change and social innovation provides the most successful path to sustainable development. Bright Green environmentalism aims to provide prosperity in an ecologically sustainable way through the union of the new technologies, improved environmental design, and global citizenship. The combination of well-built communities, new technologies and sustainable living practices, can actually improve the quality of life even while ecological footprints shrink.
The early stage of the human life is the perfect start to well-built communities and sustainable living practices establishment. This is where the idea of CIPS was born. CIPS was established in 2010 as an ideal place for practicing the bright green environment. Finding a safe, eco-healthy, clean-air atmosphere, warm, nurturing environment that promotes the growth and development of the child as a whole. The founder of CIPS holds a PhD in environmental science. She builds the school according to the international (Canadian, American, and European) safety standards and is responsible for planning and implementing an environmentally friendly and developmentally appropriate curriculum for the school.
