TJ EIC’s Compost Committee is focused on creating and implementing a school-wide composting system to reduce the food waste coming out of the cafeteria and school as a whole. So far, we have succeeded in getting necessary approval for the project and navigating restrictions and guidelines. At the end of the 2021-22 school year, we started our system with one bin in the cafeteria. For the 2022-2023 school year, we are looking forward to expanding this system and further reducing the food waste produced by TJ through various means, such as adding more compost bins and increasing awareness about our system.
