Home Composting

As part of SSA's yearlong theme of Children Can Change the World, we are embarking on a goal to bring composting into our homes. On November 7, 2018, students received an in-school presentation from Southeastern Connecticut Regional Resources Recovery Authority (SCRRRA) on the art of composting. Students built their own collective compost bin and created its first layer of leaves, water, and food scraps.
