At St. Paul Public Schools, we work to continually improve our waste-prevention & recycling performance. Since 2006, we have:
· Saved over $857,000 through recycling and waste reduction practices by avoiding high costs associated with garbage hauling.
· Lead public schools in MN with a 40% recycling rate, including recycling over 50% of our construction and demolition waste from major school projects.
