Campus Cleansweep


Nate Rosenberg, 6th grade teacher and stalwart member of Small's Green Team, led his five Science classes on a massive, campus-wide litter pickup this past Friday. The event kicked off our Earth Month activites. Their efforts also encompassed the soccer facility west of our campus.


His students recorded of the amount they collected, as well as what types of litter they found.
Student salvaged what was recyclable.


The data they collected will be entered onto a spreadsheet in order to create a pie chart.
Students will then hypothesize what are the main sources of our campus's litter, and propose strategies to address this environmental problem.


Another, even larger Cleansweep is planned for Earth Day, April 22nd. Students from many advisories (homerooms) will be assigned sections of our adoption area which includes the entire length of Monterey Oaks Boulevard. Unfortunately, it seems there's always more litter to pick up.
