Turning Students into Recycling Superstars in Greenville, SC


Our team in Greenville, SC, is teaching the next generation how to become better recyclers. Jared S., General Management Accelerated Program (GMAP), recently led a classroom presentation about recycling and ways to protect the earth. He was joined by Rodni B., Human Resources Generalist, Michelle B., Ops Supervisor, Hauling, and Jorge L., Small Container Driver. Jared’s son attends the school and was super excited to see his dad in action!

After the presentation, the students went outside and saw our Republic Services truck up close and received a few gifts from the team. “The students were really excited about the visit. The classes ranged from kindergarten to second grade level.” Rodni said.

If you are interested in giving a recycling presentation to a class or school assembly, we have the materials to help you. The Recycling Simplified Education Program SharePoint site includes step-by-step lesson plans for PreK through 12th grade with supporting, interactive teaching materials.
