Subject: [USCC] School Cafeteria Waste

Hello,
I am working with an elementary school Principal in Beacon, NY to set up

a school-wide compost system.  I am wondering if anyone has any 
suggestions, recommendations, or other projects that they can think of 
where the school cafeteria waste is composted on site.  We have worm 
bins in many of the classes but I am looking for something that can 
absorb a larger quantity each day.  Any suggestions would be 
appreciated!  Thanks.
