The Litter Project ... Kumsheen Secondary - Lytton, BC - April 20, 2013 - Grade A

I spent the last few days compiling video and images from my recent road trip.  

I did manage to see three high schools on this recent trip, in Lillooet, Lytton and Merritt.  Lillooet was by far the worst of the three. I have already posted my results here.

But I wanted to take a minute and say that I was SIGNIFICANTLY impressed with Kumsheen Secondary in Lytton!  I half suspected that it would be right up there in garbage, given what I had already seen in Merritt. But I was very pleasantly surprised.

I will be emailing the Principal of Kumsheen to see if there is some program or policy there that they help enforce to keep trash to a minimum. Perhaps there are just no kids there? I obviously hope for the former solution!

Perhaps there is some policy or principles that Mr Kormendy could share with his other fellow district principals? Regardless, it was a very pleasant surprise to have to HUNT for garbage, rather than be overwhelmed with it.  

So congrats to KUMSHEEN SECONDARY!  I found LESS than 25 pieces of trash on your school grounds, compared to THOUSANDS of pieces of litter found on other schools.  Nicely done!
