Cafeteria Volunteers Reminder
Reminder: Volunteers are needed in the cafeteria to help the students manage our composting system! Black Earth collects bags of compostable waste from all the schools in the district, but our younger students need some help managing their trays and sorting items appropriately. Please use the SignUpGenius link to cover some lunchtime shifts so we can minimize the mess and maximize the compost!
