Keeping our schools and grounds in clean and safe condition is a priority for Plant Services. In doing so, it is important that various activities be seen as a cooperative and collaborative responsibility of Board staff, students and the community/visitors; all are asked to support the Board’s environmental, waste management and recycling efforts.
While staff and students participate in various clean-up activities throughout the year, the community is reminded that while on Board property:
- the disposal of public waste in school containment bins is not permitted;
- leaving litter or waste on school grounds and playing fields, including fireworks, toxic and dangerous materials or any form of illegal dumping is not permitted;
- the "Stoop and Scoop" of pet waste is a by-law requirement of each municipality; and
- all pets shall be kept on-leash when being walked on school board property.
Caring for our school community will help to ensure our schools and administrative centres remain in good condition for everyone to enjoy.
