Procurement & Waste Streams

To reduce the amount of trash produced by the School, Lawrenceville will implement procurement policies that emphasize high quality, least cost, and maximum environmental benefit products and services. Responsible application of the School's purchasing power will have an environmental benefit, as well as contribute to both the local economy and to bottom-line savings. Specifically, the School seeks to minimize harmful effluents from the campus entering the local environment through landfills (or other dumping), sewage, chemical runoff, or other pathways.

The Lawrenceville School has undertaken a Green Campus Initiative that will take a holistic approach to campus sustainability. The Initiative focuses on campus energy, materials, land, and water use applying methods that promote ecological literacy, sustainability education, and involve the broader community outside of the School.
