In-Person Classroom Presentations

education class

Class is in session! Our team of recycling experts is ready to visit your school to help educate students about the different ways they can help protect the environment. Our free program focuses on 1st – 6th grade students and addresses many of the state standards required for recycling education.

Presentations are generally about 45 minutes, but can be altered to fit individual schedules. Your classroom visit will include a PowerPoint presentation, a short video featuring our sorting facility and all of your recycling questions answered. Smaller groups (one or two classrooms at a time) are preferred as we find them more effective than large assemblies.

Megan does a wonderful job explaining, answering questions, and involving students! My students were checking their water bottles for the recycling symbol and discussing which wrappers/papers were recyclable all day long. Thanks Megan!!
