Green Team--Parent Volunteers Wanted
Green Team
Did you know the average school throws away over 56,000 pounds of food and trash every year?
We here at Trailside Middle School want to help make a difference. We have started a Green Team to help ensure we are leaving a positive impact on our world.
Our initial goals are to compost and recycle over half of our waste and donate unopened food items to those in need.
We would love your help!!
We are looking for volunteers who can support over the lunch blocks to assist students in separating out the different categories.
We are also calling all parents/guardians and students to join us. Please fill out the form below and let us know what area you are interested in helping with.
Staff:
The Green Team is already off to a great start. It is awesome to hear the students asking if it can be composted or recycled at the end of lunch. Just the idea that they are starting to think about it, is a win!
Our initial goal is to have all students and staff successfully composting and recycling in the correct containers. Bins have been put in all the staff workrooms, kitchen, cafeteria, and FACS kitchen. Once we all get a good idea what goes where, we want to start making our own garden soil out of the compost. This will all be student led.
A quick guide:
Compost: Fruits & Vegetables and their peals, eggshells, and coffee grounds
Recycle: Water bottles, paper bags, cans, foil, paper products
Trash Can: Plastic baggies, greasy containers, and unfinished food
Thank You for all your support,
The Green Team
