Whether you are looking to start a new recycling program or improve recycling at your school, Keep Fort Worth Beautiful can help you reach your goals.

Be a Recycling Champion

School recycling programs are most successful when they are supported by a recycling team. This team should include your School Green Team and your school's custodial staff to encourage involvement at all levels. When you have everyone working toward a common goal, you will be a recycling champion!

Start a School Recycling Program

It can be difficult to know where to start if your school does not currently offer a recycling program. Our Materials Management team can help you get a recycling program up and running at your school.

Contact the Materials Management team at KFWB@fortworthtexas.gov or by calling 817-392-5963.

Request Recycling Training

Contact us if your school needs help to recycle the right items, and our Materials Management team will schedule a presentation to help your school recycle properly. We ask that teachers, administrators, custodial staff and any School Green Team students working on the program attend the meeting.
