Extra Curriculars 

Through the sustainability after school program, I was able to work with Earth Matter. This work consisted of going through my high school's waste and correctly organizing them so we could minimize the school's trash to effectively zero.  Throughout my two year stay in this program I have learned the benefits of composting and how to do it creatively and effectively. It also deepened my understanding of the effect that humans could have on any given environment. We then used the compost that we created to form an urban farm filled with fruits and vegetables for the students to eat. Without this program I would not have learned the benefits of getting dirty and really contributing to a community.
