campus clean-up events with students, teachers, staff, and volunteers to promote responsible
waste management. Set up effective systems for separating and disposing of waste, with a focus
on reducing plastic waste through recycling and composting.

solutions. Collaborate with the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA), Supreme Student Government
(SSG) officers, and local environmental groups to combine efforts, resources, and expertise.
Develop and implement innovative eco-friendly solutions, educational programs, and community
outreach initiatives to make a bigger impact and ensure long-term sustainability.
