For the third year in a row, Waimea Country School was the Big Island’s first place winner in Berry Co.’s annual telephone book recycling contest, Think Yellow Go Green.

This year, Waimea Country School students and parents collected 4,349 used phone books for the program, keeping them out of the landfill and turning them in to participating island recyclers.

Founded in 1996, Waimea Country School’s mission is “to provide an outstanding K-6 child-centered, multiage and multicultural learning experience which incorporates the core values of inclusion and respect.”
