On April 29, 2024, the Recycling Class embarked on a field trip to Fair Salvage where we returned 1000lbs of cans collected from our FAS Cafeteria's so thank you to our kitchen staff. We also had the opportunity to explore the Arnold Center in Midland, Michigan, which houses an impressive recycling program. During our visit to the Arnold Center, the students were educated on hydroponics and the process of growing plants using a water system. They grow various lettuce and herbs for local businesses and sell to the Midland farmers market. Fortune 500 companies partner with The Arnold Center to provide employment in light manufacturing and Recycling Center. Our students gained valuable knowledge from The Arnold Center's recycling program and developed new skills for their recycling class.
