Give back to the planet. Join the only student-run composting program in GUSD, keeping food waste out of the landfill, one meal at a time.
Composting turns food scraps and organic waste into nutrient-rich soil instead of methane in a landfill. Here is how it works on our campus.
Drop fruit, veggies, bread, meat, fish, and other food or plant scraps into the green compost bin at a station.
The compost leaves school and is transported to a composting facility where it is broken down into nutrient-rich soil.
Finished compost feeds farms and helps grow new food to wind up back at our cafeterias.
A quick reference for the lunch bins. Grab the full printable guide for everything you need to know.
Each month, the top composter on the leaderboard wins a gift card of their choice. Log your contributions through your account and redeem below when you win.
The leaderboard resets monthly. Number one at the end of the month takes the gift card.
We need students to staff the compost station during lunch so we can keep food waste out of the trash. Sign up for a shift and make a real difference.
