December 2nd - Picking Up Trash

I was so busy today! Despite the craziness of my winter schedule, I took time out during my free time to day to walk the school grounds inside and out to pick up trash. The inside hallways looked beautiful and I actually smiled to myself and hoped we would get some visitors to the school. I really thought it looked clean and felt very proud of our school.

By lunchtime, two periods later, I couldn't even tell I had walked around to pick up trash. The hallways were a mess.

I feel a bit compelled to do something about this, just not sure what that is yet. I wonder, if others had walked around and picked up the trash during a period then came out a few periods later and saw the mess, would they feel discouraged? Maybe if everyone pitched in throughout the day, everyone would have a bit more ownership.

I'll try and make it my goal to pick up any trash along my walk to lunch, to the restroom, to the office. Anywhere.
