Description

This workshop will provide information to school staff, teachers and administrators about how to incorporate more "green and healthy" initiatives into our schools specifically on composting in schools. Whether it is a classroom worm bin, school site demonstration compost, or full scale cafeteria compost, participants will learn ways to incorporate composting in schools to divert waste from the landfill and advance educational opportunities. Participants will be given work time to develop ideas for their classroom and/or school community.

Workshop presenter will be Angie Lemar of Recycling Connections Corporation.

Workshop is offered through Green & Healthy Schools Wisconsin in partnership with the Wisconsin Center for Environment Education at UW-Stevens Point, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, and Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.
