Please consider to volunteer to during lunch periods!
Indian Hill school has started an exciting new initiative to teach children about being mindful about food waste. The children have an opportunity to learn what it takes to compost their left overs and see how it is used in the school garden.
Indian Hill PLG Go Green initiative is looking for parent volunteers to help children properly deposit their lunch scraps into Compost Tumblers during 4th and 5th lunch periods. Please consider signing up to help the Indian Hill Go Green!!!
