  17. Future Plans… • Brichta Elementary will officially adopt Joaquin Murrieta park. • Upcoming 4th grade classes can be trained to manage the park over the summer. • Invite other schools to learn about project based learning by following our model. • Have a city wide competition to see which school has the best recyclable to trash ratio. • We would also like to place more bins at the park

  18. Future Plans… Instead of small bins… Can we get large ones?

  19. Future plans…. Instead of using the school’s commercial bin... Could we get one placed at the park?
