After a short lesson on sorting trash, kindergartners shared in a hands-on exercise. Facing three bins (recycle, compost and trash), they selected different items such as used paper, junk mail and a paper towel then disposed of them in the correct bin, earning a "high five" from Middle School "Green Club" members.
The lesson: Very few items cannot be recycled or composted at Graland.
