School mini-grants

	Reusable water bottles Rural Dell Rural Dell Elementary in Molalla previously provided disposable cups for students to use when drinking water at school. The Green Team at Rural Dell wanted to reduce that waste, so they applied for a grant to purchase reusable water bottles for all students. The green team sold the bottles at cost and recouped some money to use for future projects.
	Water bottle filling station Lake Oswego Junior High, Lakeridge Junior High In order to reduce the waste generated by single-use plastic water bottles, the Lake Oswego School District installed water bottle filling stations in several of its schools.
	Custom recycling stations Gladstone High Students on the green team at Gladstone High wanted to standardize their hallway recycling stations, so students designed and built custom recycling stations.
	Worm bins Multiple schools Classroom worm bins are an excellent way to teach about the natural process of composting. Several schools in Clackamas County have recently adopted classroom worm bins, including Gardiner Middle, Springwater Environmental Sciences School, Riverside Elementary, and North Clackamas Christian.
