Food Sharing Cart at VV
Did you know the members of Student Council has started a Food Sharing Cart to help our school reduce waste that occurs in the lunchroom everyday? The food sharing cart is a place where students can choose to place uneaten, wrapped, room temperature items on the cart that they were originally going to throw away. This allows an option for someone else who is hungry or doesn’t have a lunch. With this effort our goal is to reduce the amount of food being thrown away each day here at Ventana Vista Elementary School.
