My Project

My goal is to teach our students how to care for our environment by coming together to do what we can to responsibly recycle or upcycle our resources and help to keep our environment clean and healthy for all to enjoy. Students will pick up trash on the school grounds each week; help empty classroom recycling bins; educate other students on what can be recycled (classroom presentations) and create collection containers for each classroom.

We will repurpose "trash" into art or other useful items, and learn about people who have done this (such as turning old tires into soft playground surfaces.) We will also begin a composting project and build a wood compost bin to benefit the raised garden beds at our school.

In the cafeteria, we hope to encourage composting with lunch leftovers by having students separate their trash from compostable items by providing small buckets on each table for this purpose.
