DATA COLLECTION

Welcome to our data collection page. We sent out letters asking other schools to start a recycling program and send their data back to us. This data lists monthly amounts as reported to us be these schools. The numbers represent paper and/or cardboard based materials. Some schools have been doing a similar prgram of keeping data during the year and some have just started so they can help us with our project. The trees after the table represent the number of trees that have been saved due to these recycling efforts.
