Impact of the Implementation of Project CAPP to the Continuous Improvement of Anselmo A. Sandoval Memorial National High School

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Aiming a learning environment that is healthy, ecologically balanced, sustainably productive and climate change resistant, the students as enthusiastic learners paved the way to design Project CAP. Control Accumulation of Plastic Wastes Project targets to promote awareness and understanding towards proper waste disposal to eliminate plastic wastes which in turn can be an income-generating project as well as to regulate the increasing volume of solid wastes in the school especially the plastics.

METHODS

The descriptive method is employed to determine the effectiveness of plastic waste segregation to the school community through the implementation of the Project CAP. Its usefulness is assessed through pilot testing with the use of modified MRFs wherein data are collected to make a comparison with the time when it is not yet implemented. But the degree of its effectiveness for the total execution of the project is through answering the questionnaire which is the main instrument in gathering solutions to the problem. After the analysis and interpretation of data, the weak points of the project can be strengthened by designing a supplementary idea.

RESULTS

The project recognizes the improper wastes disposal and lame practice of waste segregation in the school community through the information attained. The old signage can no longer attract students' attention making this problem draw the interest of the administration. It is indeed easy to implement and follow rules if students are aware of them. Even though there are rules about proper wastes disposal everywhere. This shows the discipline of the young ones to keep the environment balanced.

DISCUSSIONS

The learners' willingness to actively participate in the implementation of the project leads the school administration to reinforce the weak points of the project. The Material Recovery Facility (MRF) was designed as an instant basketball ring for the plastic bottles. The advocacy of the project is to disseminate information to influence everyone -both inside and outside the school premise of its community-wide practice. It states the continuous implementation of Project CAP throughout the succeeding school years.
