The Case of the Disappearing Trash


Last school year we met with a representative from Texas Disposal Services to discuss bringing a lunchroom composting project to Small like the one they were piloting several AISD elementary schools.
Mr. Brooks and his students are already running a vermiculture and an organic garden compost project. Would this be a conflict?
 Two weeks ago Small Principal Amy Taylor and Environmental Science teacher, Chris Brooks, worked out details to continue his projects and overlaying the TDS program. This environmentally recognized green industry leader has such an efficient composting production facility that they are able to compost at much higher temperatures than we can. This allows them to accept paper products and food scraps of any kind.


This pilot project starts Thursday March 1st.
