🌱 Help Morningside Go Green! 🌱

We’re launching a pilot composting program with our 3rd and 4th graders in partnership with CompostNow—and we need a few parent volunteers to help make it a success!

Volunteers will spend just 30 minutes during lunch helping students sort their waste into compost and trash bins. It’s an easy way to make a big impact and model eco-friendly habits for our kids. ♻️

Here’s what to know:
• Volunteer Dates: April 13–24 (choose a shift that works for you)
• Why It Matters: Help reduce landfill waste and support a greener school community
