We are just beginning the club season at Burroughs, so our club has not yet had time to meet to discuss possible projects or initiatives.
Improve indoor air quality by measuring a baseline and making improvements.
We are not 100% certain of our project. We were torn between trying to increase the usage of our outdoor space and lowering the amount of trash we generate.
Last year, the CCLS Green Team introduced sustainable thought and environmental awareness into the rather antiquated approach on campus, particularly in the cafeteria by offering recycling for the
We would like to continue the project that we wanted to do last year which dealt with waste.
The overarching problem for the class project is:
How can we engineer processes to reduce waste and repurpose materials for the purpose of growing food?
At this time I do not have a specific project in mind. Our school does have large unused plant boxes that could be used for pollinators projects or planted to attract specific insects.
The third grade students are researching pollinators in the Missouri area with the intent of expanding and replanting some the of landscaped planting beds around the school and church into naturali
Our Green Team has pinpointed the cafeteria as the major waste area of our school. We brainstormed ways to reduce this waste and came up with one small change that will have a big impact.
We are continuing on our path to evaluate our energy practices and our school's sustainability.
Students are interested in creating an awareness campaign for last year's GSQ project, which was geared towards replacing the polystyrene trays that students use during lunch.
I am still in the big idea/brainstorming process.
We would like to explore ways to improve air quality - both indoors and outdoors - as well as explore ways to purchase offsite renewable energy and investigate the costs of installing wind energy.
We would like to choose a project in connection with our student teachers. They have a sustainable project. More information will come at a later time.
My students have a number of projects they are excited about. I'm letting them divvy into groups to be able to tackle multiple projects. This means we're going to attempt to do all of these.

On site gardening, composting, and recycling on school ground
Our project is to increase the amount of material that we compost into our garden.
Last year we built a greenhouse on campus near our school garden. We would love to have a master gardener help us utilize the greenhouse to its maximum potential.
Students have expressed a desire to continue our recycling program and to begin composting.
Composting was done in our cafe with money from a grant about 3 years ago. When the grant came to an end, Robinson was no longer able to financially support this program.
The way that waste, or what is perceived to be waste, is handled at our schools is wholly unsustainable and shows little respect for the environment.
We want to look at ways to change and improve our composting program and look into strategies for the reduce and reuse before recycling.
We are going to be completing a variety of small projects that will help our school environment while also raising awareness about recycling, waste management, air quality, and preservation.
Our school encourages student leadership. One of our leadership groups is called the Green Team.
The class was interested in several of the 101 Ways to Green Your School, and we will be tackling several of them ourselves, but the interest that we could use a mentor with is creating a Monarch b

Create habitats to attract beneficial animal/insect species to our outdoor learning spaces.
Our main goal is to divert as much waste from the landfill as we can. We received a grant that started January 1st to develop a composting program with an emphasis on vermicomposting.
We are uncertain about the exact project, but are leaning toward something with water conservation.
The purpose of our composting project is to establish a composting program that will all us to supplement our outdoor classroom garden beds with nutrients needs to grow organic plants.
We are attempting to cut down on single use chip bags and zip lock sandwich bags. This is an extension of last year's project.
Our school currently has no native plants or gardens on campus.
We don't know yet, we are going to let the kids do some research on the topic of throw-away culture and then determine how each class wants to approach the issues.
Our school has been open for three school years, and we are entering into our fourth. I spent the better part of last year trying to get our school to recycle.
As our fifth year of GSQ work begins, we realize our programs in place have either been lessened over time, or perhaps do not have the understanding as provided during our initial years of implemen
No specific project in mind, but a current outdoor classroom needs updating as does a garden plot area that is being used as a vegetable garden space, but not maintained through its growing season

The students choose the projects based on research they conduct on environmental issues in the first part of the school year.
We would like to expand our waste reduction program. We launched a 3 bin waste system this year in the cafeteria and will be heavily educating how to sort compost, landfill, and recycling.
In 2016-17 we implemented an addition of housing chickens at our school.
Our current building has some existing recycling features like compost bins, nature walks, and butterfly gardens that have been abandoned over the past few years.
