Clean-up drive in the community is one of the school tasks and collective efforts of the teachers, pupils and parents to improve the environment alongside the school. It brings the volunteers to work together in accomplishing their missions and these are cleaning and improving public areas that have been neglected, vandalized or misused.

          Since it was the inception of the Clean and Green in school, anybody is welcomed to join to this comprehensive program to achieve its goal which is a full clean community status. Different broad areas of interest for subsequent consideration were strictly identified and followed particularly the clean building program.

      The general procedural goals of program were:

• Provide useful and timely data to inform the community about the resources available on living sustainably and keeping their area clean;
• Integrate the land use, circulation, open space, design elements, energy use and conservation practices;
• Recognize the need to lead by example and commits to developing school and community projects that demonstrate the benefits of proven sustainable action at the cutting edge.
• Particularly in the areas of clean air, the school and community will work together to design and implement programs to which people contributes and receives benefits.

        As in all things, there is both more and less that can be done, however, we find the following list of programs reasonably inclusive, with the potential for attainable results yielding genuine benefits for the school and community.
