Nebraska School Survey — First Star Recycling

Project School Board™/The Last Pound™ Survey

Thank you for taking this brief questionnaire to demonstrate to national brand companies that Nebraska schools and communities are willing to help recover their otherwise unrecyclable plastic packaging, provided that they in turn help to train our students how to build with plastic lumber made with their packages sourced from local recycling programs, which also serve their support. For more information on Project School Board click here.

The survey should take less than 10 minutes to complete, but the collective responses could produce positive benefits for Nebraskans for years to come. Confidential responses are perfectly fine, however, if you would like updates on the progress to fund Project School Board activities, simply fill out the contact information below.

Does your town have a recycling program?

If yes, does the program accept ALL of the plastics in the following list?: #1 PET bottles (e.g., soda & water bottles), #1 PET clam shells (e.g., produce packaging), #2 Clear HDPE containers (e.g., milk jugs), #2 Color HDPE containers (e.g., detergent bottles, yogurt and margarine tubs), #3 PVC containers (e.g., shampoo and cosmetic tubes), #4 LDPE bags (e.g., grocery store bags, some soft drink bottles), #5 PP tubs (e.g., margarine, butter), #6 EPS (e.g., egg cartons), #7 Other (e.g., ketchup bottles), Hard to recycle plastics (e.g., straws, wrappers, etc.)

Does your school recycle?

If yes, does your school recycling program include plastics?

What financial support does your school provide students to purchase supplies for their individual projects (i.e., what is the school’s average contribution per student)?

None, students must buy their own supplies

Less than $100 per project

Between $100 and $___ (please specify cap in comments below)

Do you have anything to add on school financial support for projects (e.g. funding caps)?

Would you offer class projects for students to build items for your community (e.g., wheelchair ramps, walkways, garden beds, etc.) if funding was made available for such efforts?

Would a grant make it more likely that you would lead such an effort?

Would you like to be kept informed about Project School Board™ and The Last Pound™?
