Sobre nosotros

Our school produces a significant amount of waste daily — from uneaten cafeteria food to excessive paper usage and unrecycled plastics. Despite student interest in sustainability, we lack a coordinated system to reduce and manage our school’s environmental footprint. This contributes to landfill overflow, carbon emissions, and missed educational opportunities around climate responsibility.

Proposed Solution:
GreenClass is a student-led initiative that introduces a three-part sustainability program:

Smart Sorting Stations in cafeterias with visuals and student ambassadors to guide proper disposal (compost, recycle, landfill).

Paper-Lite Classrooms that transition to more digital assignments and shared resources.

“Green Points” Challenge – a school-wide competition that tracks class participation in green habits, with monthly rewards to encourage behavior change.

This solution is low-cost, leverages existing resources, and centers student leadership.

Target Market:
Our primary audience is middle and high school students, teachers, and school administrators in public schools. These groups are both contributors to school waste and potential changemakers. Secondary markets include school districts, PTAs, and local environmental nonprofits who can support scaling and funding. Over time, the program can expand to elementary schools with simplified components and community centers looking for youth-led sustainability models.

Next Steps:
Get Approval: Meet with school admin and custodial staff to discuss logistics and permission.

Pilot Program: Launch a 4-week trial in one grade level.

Gather Feedback: Use surveys and waste tracking to evaluate impact.

Scale Up: Present pilot results to expand school-wide.

Sustainability Plan: Partner with the PTA for funding and set up an annual student-led Green Committee.

Societal Impact:
GreenClass not only reduces physical waste — it builds long-term environmental awareness in the next generation. By embedding sustainability into daily school life, it:

Promotes climate literacy and responsible decision-making

Equips youth to lead environmental change in their communities

Reduces landfill contributions and encourages composting and recycling

Models scalable, low-cost programs that other schools and communities can replicate
Over time, GreenClass contributes to a culture of sustainability that ripples beyond school walls into families and neighborhoods.

Reflection:
This project helped us realize that real change doesn’t require big budgets — it requires people who care. We learned how to collaborate across grade levels, communicate with school staff, and think about long-term sustainability. Even small actions like sorting waste can spark bigger conversations about climate responsibility. Our goal isn’t just to reduce waste — it’s to create a culture of accountability and care for our environment.
