Dakota County will host the fourth-annual School Recycling Workshop Thursday, July 12, at the Republic Services Recycling Center in Inver Grove Heights. All school personnel, including administrators, teachers, buildings and grounds personnel, kitchen staff and Green Team leaders are invited to attend this free workshop. The workshop will be from 8:30–11 a.m. Optional tours of the landfill and recycling facility will follow from 11 a.m.–noon.
New panelists and topics are provided each year in an interactive setting. Participants will have an opportunity to learn about new resources and discuss recycling opportunities, challenges and solutions. This year's agenda includes breakfast-in-the-classroom waste, share tables in the cafeteria, making organics collection successful at lunch, and paper shredding solutions.
