School Wide Composting

As a result of a school wide waste audit a 3 bin composter was built on our school grounds. The entire school population now participates in composting and collection bins are in all classrooms and common areas. Twice weekly members of the Green Team brings the compost to the outdoor bins. Green Team members as well as other students stir the compost to aerate, monitor green to brown ratios and tends to the compost as needed.
