Student Spotlights: Cafeteria Victories

Enjoy these stories of middle and high school students who share inspiring stories, innovative ideas, and practical advice to help more students take an active role in environmental conservation. Our Spotlight Our Schools series highlights student teams who have figured out something worth sharing, whether that’s engaging peers, growing membership, or running effective cafeteria campaigns.

If you’re a district‑level sustainability leader, you may recognize some of these student presenters from our bimonthly Resource Optimizers Unite call, co‑founded with Oakland Unified School District and co‑hosted with the Center for Green Schools. Sign up here to join the next call.

If your school has a cafeteria victory to share, we’d love to feature your students in a future Spotlight Our Schools piece. Use the “Spotlight Our Schools” button in the navigation to learn how to submit your story.
