KMB 2009 Award Recipients
The Michigan Plaque Award:
Trombley Elementary School, Grosse Pointe Park
Trombley School students, staff and parents have been committed to making Trombley School an official Green School. Requirements established by the Michigan Green Schools program have been successfully met by Trombley School for two consecutive school years. Trombley School is proud to be the first Green School in the Grosse Pointes and one of the charter Green Schools in Michigan. Some of the projects that started to support this program include paper recycling and recycling Capri juice boxes. As part of the Green School requirements, a native Michigan plant garden was established on the school property. This garden, as well as other gardens on the Trombley property, contains many plants native to Michigan.
