Teaching Sustainability

On Saturday 11/9, Lower School Community Service and HEAL (Hackley Earth Action League) representatives spent the day at the TaSH Farmer’s Market, educating the community about the dangers of single use plastics and giving away reusable bags.

The students collected old t-shirts this fall and upcycled them into bags during CS and HEAL meetings during and after school. They shared facts they’d learned and offered some pamphlets created from research conducted by 4th graders. The students engaged community members in meaningful conversations about our planet and our habits and challenged them to reduce or eliminate single use plastics from their lives.
