Texas Disposal Systems is Offering Eco-Minded Resources for Families

Texas Disposal Systems (NYSE: TDS), a locally owned and managed group of Texas-based waste and recycling companies, has announced that it will offer free access to the first lesson of its Eco Academy online elementary curriculum.

The TDS Eco Academy program is designed “to help minimize waste in Central Texas schools by educating K-12 students about trash, recycling and composting options.” But, after the recent announcement that schools in the state will be closed for the remainder of the school year, TDS decided to make part of this curriculum—and other online resources—available for all. The resources include videos and “virtual field trip” ideas, nature-themed games to play outdoors, and coloring pages that celebrate Mother Earth.

“Whether they are learning at school or learning from home, the future starts with today’s students,” said Leticia Mendoza, Texas Disposal Systems’ Director of Marketing and Communications.
