GREEN TEAM BUILDING
As Royal Oak Schools moves towards a greener future, we are excited to announce the formation of Green Teams at our schools. These teams will play a crucial role in our new composting and zero-waste initiatives, set to begin this fall and roll out throughout the year.
To help identify potential Green Team members, in partnership with the City of Royal Oak Sustainability department, we are hosting an informational session to gauge interest and provide a high-level overview of what these teams could look like. We aim to have enthusiastic volunteers identified for each school, ensuring our environmental programs' smooth and successful implementation.
Additionally, we encourage everyone to take advantage of volunteer opportunities at the Royal Oak Farmer’s Market composting and zero-waste education events. These events are an excellent way to learn about composting firsthand and gain insights into what to expect when our schools start their composting programs this school year.
We believe that community involvement and education can foster a culture of sustainability and environmental stewardship within our schools.
The next meeting, which is open to anyone, is August 6 from 4 - 5:30 pm at the Administrative Offices.
