Custodial staff, child nutrition managers and office staff are invited to serve on a Waste Management Advisory Committee and will be given the opportunity to tour the Lexington Recycle Center. Bluegrass Greensource can perform waste audits with support staff to help schools understand the importance of recycling and reducing contamination. Greensource staff and school staff can use this data to develop or improve a school’s recycling plan and identify needed outreach materials.
Because services extend beyond the school day, Bluegrass Greensource staff can be consulted about improving recycling at athletic events, school dances, academic competitions, etc. Specific protocols and signage for recycling have been developed and are available for use by interested school groups.
If you are interested in serving on the Waste Management Advisory Committee or would like assistance with recycling at your school, email Pattie@BGGreensource.org.
